Thanks for those replies. I basically followed Ken's suggestion. I started with the Kings College London dissertation template and used writer2latex to create a .tex file. Then I gradually built the the Org-File. I have ended up with something I can use to write using org-mode with a nice Solarized-Dark theme instead of frying my eyeballs in LibreOffice. The key things are the Table of Contents are in the correct place and I have bibtex working the way I want. The other thing is in the end I have to convert from the .tex file to a .docx file using pandoc. So I'll have to do some minor edits in LibreOffice anyway because it is not saving certain formating features like double spacing. But that will be a two minute final editing job. So now I just have to write 500 words a day for the next 30 days and I'll have a first draft! ;) Regards, Paul On 4 May 2015 at 23:20, Ken Mankoff wrote: > Hi Paul, > > For this type of one-off project (a thesis), I'd suggest you a) remove all > Org-generated LaTeX header, b) create your own LaTeX preamble that you > \include{preamble} in your Org file, and then all of your questions become > LaTeX questions, not Org questions. > > Those LaTeX questions are likely easily googlable (or bingable) and found > on TeX.SE.
