Hello all,
I would like to have some text in color when I export my org document to
latex.
I tried this:
...
#+latex_header: \usepackage{color}
\textcolor{red}{Text I want in red}
...
But, this is producing
...
\usepackage{color}
\textcolor{red}\{Text I want in red\} in the exported latex document.
...
How can I properly export the org file to latex and still have colored
text. How can I escape braces '{'?
Best regards,
Chai

Try this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Here is some @@latex:\textcolor{red}{red text}@@
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

One way is with a macro, e.g.,
#+MACRO: red \textcolor{red}{$1}
This is {{{red(Text I want in red)}}}.
Which exports to
This is \textcolor{red}{Text I want in red}.
Or, more generally,
#+MACRO: color \textcolor{$1}{$2}
This is {{{color(green,Text I want in green)}}}.
Which exports to
This is \textcolor{green}{Text I want in green}.
hth,
Tom

Thank you (Nick and Tom). Both the solutions above worked.
