If I begin a line with bolded text, like so:
*Case 1:*
it produces the following LaTeX:
\textbf{Case 1:\}
Exporting with C-c C-e d produces an empty LaTeX document.
Is this reproducible? Is it a bug?
Thank you,
- Raffi.

Is it a bug? It works fine with me so long as I have something before this line, even just the template generated by C-x C-e t. (see attached file) However, in testing this out, I have run into two little problems: 1. if I simply visit a buffer (not a file), say x.org, and try exporting to Latex in a temporary buffer (C-c C-e L), I get the following error: ,---- | Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil) | file-name-nondirectory(nil) | org-export-as-latex(nil nil nil "*Org LaTeX Export*") | org-export-as-latex-to-buffer(nil) | call-interactively(org-export-as-latex-to-buffer) | org-export(nil) | call-interactively(org-export nil nil) `---- 2. if I subsequently save the buffer into a file (C-x C-w x.org), for some reason I get prompted for a file name when trying C-c C-e L.

It needs to have your buffer saved (C-x C-s), and not just written to a file somewhere (C-x C-w). This seems true even if all you want to do is get your latex in a temporary buffer. It's not ideal for rustling up a quick piece of throwaway LaTeX, but, as I remember, it's always been that way.

This is on OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard using Preview. It only occurs using PDFs generated from org, as far as I can tell. I will explore some more to see if it's due to LaTeX or Preview or something else. Has anyone else had this problem?

At lease with the latest version I cannot reproduce this. Can you please check again after pulling? Thanks. - Carsten ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

Exporting to a temporary latex buffer works in both of these cases: 1. visiting a new buffer, no file attached; 2. after saving the buffer to a file (write-file). Further, the OP's original problem is definitely not there. Thanks, eric ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

Is it a bug? I am not able to reproduce it. WOrks just fine for me. Can you please make a complete example file and attach the produced tex file as well? And maybe you settings as listed bu org-submit-bug-report? Are you using the latest version of Org-mode? Git release?
