So I just went through the install process, and it turns out I already have the files in question. I just haven't gotten them working yet. The website for sffms says I need to put the following into my doc: \documentclass{sffms} \author{Lois McMaster Bujold} \title{Komarr} \begin{document} Your story goes here. \end{document} Which seems encouragingly simple, but I'm a little confused about using this LaTex markup in the context of an org document. Org has its own markup to pass to latex for these I think, like #+AUTHOR. Is there a similar one for \documentclass ? Thanks again! Steven
