I hope somebody here on this list can help me solve a puzzling
situation.
I have a LaTeX src block which creates an image using tikz. In a book
I'm writing, the image, when created as a png, does not get shrunk but
is instead a full page (with the actual diagram in the top left corner).
If I create a PDF, instead, it works fine.
I have extracted this src block into a minimal file (attached). For
that file, the image creation works fine whether I create a png or a
PDF.
I have gone through the settings in the book file but cannot find
anything that would affect this behaviour.
I am hoping somebody can suggest what it might be that makes the png
image not be shrunk!
Both emacs and org from git as of this morning.
Thank you,
eric

Testing two possibilities:
What (latex) code produces that image in the output *tex file of your book?
and
C-h v RET org-format-latex-header RET: what value?
Best regards,

They both use the same LaTeX src block (as was in the attachment) which
creates an org link to the generated PDF or PNG file. It's the
generation of the image file that is the problem, not how the file is
used in the end unfortunately.

Both the same and the default value from org.
thank you,
eric

I'm not sure, but maybe the problem comes from the
\documentclass{article} in org-format-latex-header. Can you try
replacing that with "\\documentclass[varwidth]{standalone}"?
Another possibility: please try adding the header arg. :imagemagick yes
Best regards,
Juan Manuel

This did it! Thank you. I am curious now to find out what tool was
used instead... something for later today!
Thanks again,

Well, it seems that if you use ":imagemagick yes", the image is created
with the `org-babel-latex-convert-pdf' function. I almost always use this
to create images from latex blocks, for example:
#+begin_src latex: imagemagick yes :iminoptions -density 600
\bfseries Hello world!
#+end_src
":fit" crop the image, but you can also put in your "org-format-latex-header" "\\documentclass[varwidth]{standalone}"
On the contrary, without :imagemagick, but with results to *.png file,
`org-create-formula-image' is used, which depends on
"org-preview-latex-process-alist" and
"org-preview-latex-default-process". Since I only use LuaTeX for
everything, I have this in my init, in order to preview LaTeX fragments:
(setq luamagick
'(luamagick
:programs ("lualatex" "convert")
:description "pdf > png"
:message "you need to install lualatex and imagemagick."
:use-xcolor t
:image-input-type "pdf"
:image-output-type "png"
:image-size-adjust (1.0 . 1.0)
:latex-compiler ("lualatex -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f")
:image-converter ("convert -density %D -trim -antialias %f -quality 100 %O")))
(add-to-list 'org-preview-latex-process-alist luamagick)
(setq org-preview-latex-default-process 'luamagick)
Note that the -trim option for the "convert" program (last line) allows
you to crop the image from the pdf page.
Best regards,
Juan Manuel
