Hi,

I'm a n00b to Lisp and org-mode so please forgive me if the answer is o= bvious. I'm using version 7.01h of org-mode.

I'm trying to set up a custom Latex class to use for preparing a docume= nt. Some Google searching showed that I need to add this class to the org-e= xport-latex-classes symbol. I tried to do this in my .emacs file, for examp= le following what is listed at http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tu= torials/org-latex-export.php by adding the following to my .emacs file:=

(add-to-list 'org-export-latex-classes
'("article"
"\\documentclass{article}"
("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")))


I know that org-export-latex-default-class is already set to "article&= quot; but this example already shows that something is wrong. When I load e= macs the debugger complains that org-export-latex-classes is an empty list:=

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable org-export-latex-classes)
add-to-list(org-export-latex-classes ("article" "\\documentc= lass{article}" ("$
eval-buffer(#<buffer *load*> nil "/home/cmalone/.emacs" nil= t) ; Reading at$
load-with-code-conversion("/home/cmalone/.emacs" "/home/cmal= one/.emacs" t t)
load("~/.emacs" t t)
#[nil "^H\205\276^@ \306=3D\203^Q^@\307^H\310Q\202A^@ \311=3D\2033^@\3= 12\307\31$
command-line()
normal-top-level()

As far as I can tell, org-export-latex-classes is set to nil in org-latex.e= l, but this isn't loaded until the export dispatcher calls org-export-a= s-latex. Is this correct? Coincidentally, if I export to latex, the appropr= iate .tex file is created without issue.

My original goal was to setup a custom Latex class - I have tried in the sa= me manner as that used above for the "article" class and the debu= gger produces the same result. However, when I attempt to export to latex I= get the error that my custom class isn't in the org-export-latex-class= es list, presumably because of the failure in loading the .emacs file.

Any advice?

Hi Chris,

My tutorial might have been over-optimistic about the ease of configuration= . =A0Perhaps you also need this in your .emacs before you add-to-list:

=A0(require 'org-latex)

All the best,
Tom
