Hello
I export a org file to latex using the exam class and therefore thanks
to Thomas Hunter I have defined.
(org-latex-classes
(quote
(
("exam" "\\documentclass[12pt, addpoints, answers]{exam}"
("\\begin{questions}%%%s" "\\end{questions}"
"\\begin{questions}%%%s" "\\end{questions}")
("\\titledquestion[%s] " . "")
("\\begin{parts}%%%s" "\\end{parts}" "\\begin{parts}%%%s"
"\\end{parts}")
("\\part[%s] " . "")
("\\begin{subparts}%%%s" "\\end{subparts}"
"\\begin{subparts}%%%s" "\\end{subparts}")
("\\subpart[%s] " . "")
("\\begin{solution}[%s]" "\\end{solution}" "\\begin{solution}[%s]"
"\\end{solution}")))))
The problem is that my document also contains latex \section commmands.
These are exported correctly *only* if they don't contain math.
Works
\section{Adaptive methods using hopt}
Does not work:
\section{Adaptive methods using $h_{\text{op}}$}
The resulting latex file looks like
Ok
\section{Adaptive methods using hopt}
The following is not ok,
\section\{Adaptive methods using \(h_{\text{op}}\)\}
So what shall I do?
Thanks regards
Uwe Brauer

My suggestion would be to use top level headlines (level 1) as sections
and subheadlines as questions/solutions. I.e. change the
org-latex-classes entry.

IIUC, you write the above directly in the document. Org has very limited
support for raw LaTeX syntax. It can only understand simple macros with
simple arguments -- i.e., no nested arguments.
If you need to write more complicated constructs in the document,
consider using dedicated syntax, e.g.,
#+latex: \section{Adaptive methods using $h_{\text{op}}$}

Ah thanks! That solves my problem.

That is a possibility, thanks, but I think right now I will stick to
Nick's suggestion.

Always, especially in org, more than one way to skin a cat (apologies to
cat lovers... :-)).
