I've been puzzling over this for several weeks now, how can I get the
TOC of a document, written in org-mode and exported as latex and then
built into a PDF, have just one column of its TOC, instead of what seems
to be its default of 2 columns, please?

Thanks
Sharon.

That is funny, for me it has always been one column.  How do you do
two columns?  Seriously, are you sure that this happens for a basic
minimal org file, say with only one headline?  If so, I'm at a loss.
Otherwise, perhaps you can start by checking your "#+LATEX=..."  (or
similar) instructions in your org file.

Regards,
a.

It might depend on the LaTeX class used.  It's not an org issue.

Indeed.  I remember looking for a way to make the Toc two column.  My
LaTeX export now sports a line

\usepackage[toc]{multitoc}

plus some configurations.

If you don't find a “#+LaTeX_Header: ” line \usepackaging some toc
package or stuff, you might want to look at your emacs initialization
file.  In particular look for a modification of the
“org-latex-packages-alist” variable.

Best regards
Robert

Thanks Eric and Robert.

I had a look and found that I too had multitoc loaded in, and when I
commented it out my TOC became one only column, which is what I want.

Many thanks both

Sharon.
