But other possible chapters are - tasks and timeline (agenda files and their timeline) - funds (ledger reports) - people (kind of org-contacts) and their looks is not really impressive in the PDF. I wish I could just create taskjuggler charts and reports for the tasks, but unfortunately taskjuggler3 only creates html reports currently, and I don't know of a way to embed these into LaTeX docs (if you heard of one, let me know please). So the 3 latter chapters are basically exported headlines, property drawers, planning info and example blocks. The output looks really *plain*, with typewriter fonts etc. Exporting such org-sources to html gives beautiful pages thanks to CSS, does somebody have customizations that produce beautiful latex too? How do you export your org-contacts file to latex? How do you export Agenda files or Agenda buffers (e.g. the Agenda timeline buffer looks quite nice in Emacs, but not so when put in a quote-block and exported to latex.)? Any hints would be welcome. -- cheers, Thorsten
