Hi List,
I am using a custom Latex class that requires some code between
\begin{document} and \maketitle.
It seems from looking at ox-latex.el that there is nothing between document
start and title command available for me to customize.
I suppose I could customize the title command to include the extra code,
but I'd like to find an alternate approach if possible so I don't have to
manage org-latex-title-command on a per-document basis.
Are there any convenient alternatives?
Regards,
Jake

Maybe something like AfterPreamble, AfterEndPreamble, AtEndPreamble
etc. from etoolbox? Or AfterPackage from KOMA-Script.
Hope it helps,
Rasmus

(info "(org) Advanced configuration") has a heading called 'Filters' that
may interest you.
If you always export that custom class using the same boilerplate between
the \begin{document} and the \maketitle , you can install
your own `final-output' filter. All it needs to do is check if the custom
class is operative and if it is insert the needed text before \maketitle.
As a start, put something like this in your init file:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :exports results :results none
(defun my-final-filter (s backend info)
(when (eq backend 'latex)
(let ((class (plist-get info :latex-class)))
(message "class: %s" class)
(when (string= class "report")
(replace-regexp-in-string "\\maketitle"
"% put special stuff here\n\\maketitle"
s nil t)))))
(add-to-list 'org-export-filter-final-output-functions 'my-final-filter)
#+END_SRC
Change "report" to your special class and the % comment to whatever
you need.
To make it more robust, you might want to fiddle with the regexp in case
there is a \maketitle someplace else in your document.
HTH,
Chuck

I don't know of any æsthetically pleasing solution to this
problem. I've done this in the past by redefining \maketitle to
introduce my design commands and then invoke the actual \maketitle
command.

Ah, a Latex solution to an Org problem. I was looking for a final filter
and didn't realize it, but used your approach before I saw Chuck's reply.
Since I was already defining a custom org-latex-class, I was able to add
the necessary code inside the class definition:
(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
...
[NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
[EXTRA]
\\AfterPreamble{
...
}
This works great.

Indeed, this is what I was missing. I would have used this if I hadn't
already figured it out with AfterPreamble
I started creating a filter to move the TOC (which I need to come after
"Acknowledgments"), but it turned out to be easier just to set toc:nil and
put the TOC and lists of figures/tables where I wanted them as raw Latex
commands
Thanks both for the help.
Regards,
Jake
