In LaTeX, I would typically use the enumitem package, and then start an
itemized list with
\begin{itemize}[itemsep= ]
where itemsep could equal whatever spacing I wanted.
How do I change the inter-item vertical spacing (specifically, decrease
it) in org-mode with pdflatex export?
Thanks.

If I follow correctly, you're saying that enumitem works in raw LaTeX and you want to use it via Org-mode? If so, can you get by with applying document-wide settings in the .org file header? #+latex_header: \usepackage{enumitem} #+latex_header: \setlist or \setenumerate [global options you want applied][1] Or do you need control at the level of specific itemized groupings, and thus document-wide settings wouldn't work for your situation? Hope that helps?

Then, this should work: #+ATTR_LATEX: :options itemsep=1pt - One - Two - Three \begin{itemize}[itemsep=1pt] \item One \item Two \item Threee \end{itemize} % Emacs 24.3.1 (Org mode 8.2.3c) All the best, Tom -- Thomas S.

If the beginning of my org subtree looks like this: ** Review of assessment system for preceptors :PROPERTIES: :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: ReviewOfAssessmentSystemForPreceptors-12-02-2013 :EXPORT_TITLE: Review of our system for assessing students' clinical performance :EXPORT_AUTHOR: Christopher w.

Also, I'm puzzled by the appearance of \usepackage{charter} twice, when I did not even call it once in the org subtree. If, on the other hand, my org subtree looks like this: ** Review of assessment system for preceptors :PROPERTIES: :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: ReviewOfAssessmentSystemForPreceptors-12-02-2013 :EXPORT_TITLE: Review of our system for assessing students' clinical performance :EXPORT_AUTHOR: Christopher w.

Unless you're manually accessing that exporter via the sort of "trial period" methods that used to exist while it was in heavy development, I'm going to assume you're using the old exporter and thus don't have this feature. Here's the announcement/upgrade info if you'd like to update things to Org 8+: - http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html Here's my output: ==== Org file ==== #+latex_header: \usepackage{enumitem} * Test ** normal - item 1 - item 2 - item 3 ** with enumitem #+attr_latex: :options itemsep=1pt - item 1 - item 2 - item 3 ========== ==== LateX output ==== \section{Test} \label{sec-1} \subsection{normal} \label{sec-1-1} \begin{itemize} \item item 1 \item item 2 \item item 3 \end{itemize} \subsection{with enumitem} \label{sec-1-2} \begin{itemize}[itemsep=1pt] \item item 1 \item item 2 \item item 3 \end{itemize} ========= In inspecting the PDF output, the spacing is, indeed, different between the two lists (less in the second case). I didn't comment on your per-headline latex setup/properties/issues, as I don't really do that. I typically just put everything in the main document. I'm sure someone else can chime in, though.
