Aloha Robert,

You're right again.  Sorry for the noise.  The amssymb package is the source of the font conflicts.

Thanks for pointing this out.

I don't use amsmath, so can't help with your queries.  When you've sorted them out, please consider adding the solution to the LaTeX export tutorial.

All the best,
Tom

Aloha Robert,

Yep.  It should be "One of these, amssymb, requires amsmath, which
conflicts with several LaTeX fonts."

I don't /believe/ amssymb requires amsmath.  I have been working on a
document where I wanted to use some of the stuff in amsmath (e.g.,
\text, align environment).  That document did /not/ parse, even though
amssymb *is* in the preamble of the exported file.  I looked, and the
preamble has amssymb, but not amsmath.

It would be *great* if someone could provide tutorial information that
would tell us:

1.  How do we configure a file so that it *can* use amsmath?
2.  What happens to the parallel HTML export if we use amsmath
constructs in an org file?

thanks!

The document http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html
claims

"The Org-mode LaTeX exporter uses several packages to support special
characters used by org-entities. One of these, amsmath, conflicts with
several LaTeX fonts. If you want finer control over which packages are
loaded, then it makes sense to define an export class like this in
.emacs:"

But I just checked the results of exporting one of my org files, and it
does /not/ use amsmath.

Is this a bug in the tutorial?
