Hi there,

I realize that there have been a lot of discussion on this topic; however, it is not clear to me how to resolve this issue. More specifically, org-latex-export does a good job convert org to latex, but for some reason bibtex isn't called.  My current work around is run bibtex in a shell after running org-latex-export.

I there a more elegant way of doing this ?

thanks

Aloha M,

I'm not certain I understand your questions, but perhaps this will help.

There are many things one might do with the .tex file created by the Org-mode LaTeX exporter: latex, pdftex, bibtex, makeindex, glossaries, etc.  If your output target is pdf, then the variable org-latex-to-pdf-process is your friend.  This one holds a list of commands to run against the .tex file; one of these commands can be bibtex.

There is some discussion of this here:
