I've found that I'm creating my own headers and other items that must be included before the \begin, and the only mechanism for adding them is via the org-export-latex-append-header variable. I've added this to my local variables block, but it is quite awkward. I know I can customize the org-export-class variable, but it would be difficult to customize on each document. Did I miss a feature to specify LaTeX header information for the exporter? I'm trying to add usepackages, fancyheader, etc. Here's an example of what I'm putting in the local block: #+ Local Variables: #+ org-export-latex-title-command: "" #+ org-export-latex-tables-column-borders: t #+ org-export-latex-append-header: "\ #+ \\usepackage{graphicx}\ #+ \\renewcommand{\\headheight}{33pt}\ #+ \\fancyhead[L]{Header here}" #+ End: Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Russell Adams RLAdams@AdamsInfoServ.com PGP Key ID: 0x1160DCB3 http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/ Fingerprint: 1723 D8CA 4280 1EC9 557F 66E8 1154 E018 1160 DCB3
