Hello,
Is there a way to customize how a date is exported into LaTeX?
Google couldn't help me on this.
For example, if an org file contains a timestamp <2012-01-09 Mon>, I'm
getting an italicized version in the .tex file, i.e. \textit{2012-01-09
Mon}.
I would like to be able to change how dates are displayed in a global
way. In particular, I'm interested in automatically formatting the dates
in my documents using \usepackage[option]{isodate}?
So, in other words, I'd like to tell orgmode that it should output the
following
\printdate{2012-01-09}
or
\date-range{2012-01-01}{2012-01-09}
for date ranges.
I could use then use
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[option]{isodate}
to quickly change the date format, which could produce results as
diverse as:
Jan 9, 2012
January 9, 2012
Janvier 9, 2012
2012/01/09
2012/09/01
and so on...
Any hints on how to do this?
Cheers,
Carlos

You cannot do this right now.
See these variables:
org-export-latex-timestamp-markup:
"A printf format string to be applied to time stamps."
org-export-latex-timestamp-inactive-markup:
"A printf format string to be applied to inactive time stamps."
org-export-latex-timestamp-keyword-markup:
"A printf format string to be applied to time stamps."
HTH,

Er.. forget this sentence -- perhaps my subconscious is trying
to tell me there are too many variables in Org now :)

Thanks, it seems that
(setq org-export-latex-timestamp-markup "\\printdate{%s}")
does half of the job already.

I suppose this means there are no plans of creating a variable containing the markup associated with a date range, right :-p?
Cheers,
Carlos

Not that I know -- but beware of the conspiracy, as the LaTeX exporter
is currently being rewritten by Nicolas... see org-e-latex.el in the
EXPERIMENTAL/ directory. I guess configuring the format for dates range
is not beyond possibility.
