Is it somethin= g simple > like omitting #+TITLE and #+AUTHOR? >=20 One has to either a) explicitly have an empty #+TITLE: or b) set org-export-latex-title-command to "". The in-file setting for the latter is #+BIND: org-export-latex-title-command "" but #+TITLE: is easier :-) Nick PS. BTW, there's plenty o' stuff on the mailing list about such problems: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/38156 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/28138 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/40596 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/32081 and probably much more...
