Hi Jeff,

I just saw your question about= removing paragraph indent, and adding space between paragraphs. You can do= that with the following LaTeX commands:

\setlength{\parskip}{1ex plus 0.5ex minus 0.2ex} %%= Add space between paragraphs

\setlength{\parindent}{0pt} %% Do not indent paragr= aphs


You can put= them at the top of your org document like so:

<= br>

#+LATEX_HEADER: \setlength{\parskip}{1ex plus 0= .5ex minus 0.2ex} %% Add space between paragraphs

#+LATEX_HEADER: \setlength{\parindent}{0pt} %% Do not indent paragraphs


I hope this hel= ps!

I'm trying to export a .org file to .pdf= and although I've gotten past
many formatting hurdles, I am stuck on two problems.

1) How can I redefine, in my org-export-latex-classes variable, the
\section definition, such that it includes \pagebreak?
=A0 =A0 =A0My reason is that I would like each of my top-level headings to<= br> start on a new page, like a new chapter.

2) How can I change the basic formatting of paragraphs everywhere to

=A0 =A0 =A0a) omit the leading indent, and
=A0 =A0 =A0b) have a blank line between paragraphs

=A0 =A0 Instead of this strange-looking style:

=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 This is a test paragraph
=A0 =A0 of the following kind of thing.
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 And so is this one.

=A0 =A0 I want it to look like this:

=A0 =A0 This is a test paragraph
=A0 =A0 of the following kind of thing.
=A0 =A0 =A0 And so is this one.

Thanks for any helpful souls out there. =A0I'm working on learning LaTe= X
but can't see how the various parts of the "article" base cla= ss fit
together and how to selectively override them.
