Hi all,
I have a beamer presentation in org-mode that contains a line like
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \subtitle{foo}
This prevents me from using 'org-preview-latex-fragment' as that one --
naturally, as it uses the article class -- fails with
'Failed to create dvi file from /tmp/orgtex49760oq.tex'
due to
,----
| ERROR: Undefined control sequence.
|
| --- TeX said ---
| l.38 \subtitle
`----
What's the remedy here?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Andreas

Interesting. I put back use of #+latex_header keywords for latex
snippets recently, but that is a double-edged sword. Overall, I'm not
sure which is the right behaviour here. Is there one, anyway?
To solve your problem, you can include your problematic header in a new
latex class instead of relying on latex_header. Another solution is to
put that latex_header line in an include file, or to generate it as
a macro.

Thanks for the quick answer and for these hints.
In this particular situation (the \subtitle will always be document
specific) the latex class is not possible here -- I won't create latex
classes per document.
An include file just for a subtitle seems overkill. So I went with the
macro. If there were multiple offending lines, I'd probably use the
include file.
Anyway, just for reference, this is the macro:
#+begin_src org
#+MACRO: subtitle #+latex_header: \subtitle{$1}
{{{subtitle(foo)}}}
#+end_src
Downside is, that \ and , within the subtitle will have to be escaped.
Regards,
Andreas

Classes can have arguments and the argument would be the subtitle to
set, so I don't understand that objection.

Achim.

Right. That holds for properly designed LaTeX classes. But I was talking
about one of my LaTeX classes....
Here, the macro was just so much cheaper, so again no pressure to
improve my LaTeX class ;-)

Andreas

I introduced LATEX_HEADER_EXTRA keyword, which will do the same as
LATEX_HEADER but will not be used to preview latex snippets. Note that
lines included in LATEX_HEADER_EXTRA will always appear after those
defined by LATEX_HEADER keywords in the output.

Thank you very much for this convenient keyword! Much appreciated.
Haven't tested yet, but will use this a lot, I guess.
(I will definitely *not* improve my LaTeX class now ;-)

Andreas

We need to document this in the manual. Can you add a note?
Also, the docstring of `org-latex-classes' uses [EXTRA] and
[NO-EXTRA], but this does not refer to #+LATEX_HEADER_EXTRA
so perhaps we should make it more explicit here.
Thanks,

It does, a few lines above and a few lines below. Done anyway.
