Slides about LaTeX export

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

Just to let you know I've made a 1h30 presentation about the LaTeX exporter of
Org mode 8 at the "Stage LaTeX de Dunkerque 2013", on last Wednesday (12th of
June).

My slides are visible on:

  http://fr.slideshare.net/fniessen/org-modelatexexport

The Org source, LaTeX generated file and PDF output are on:

  http://www.github.com/fniessen

Best regards,
Fabrice

Hi Fabrice,

all source code objects are empty yellow squares when I view this slide show with Chrome...

Cheers

As another data point, I can see them fine (Chromium Version 25.0.1364.160 Ubuntu
12.04 (25.0.1364.160-0ubuntu0.12.04.1)).

It works as expected for me with Google Chrome.

IIRC, both you and Carsten use Macs - correct? OTOH, I use ubuntu and
I'm pretty sure Suvayu uses some version of Linux too. So far, it looks
as if the problem is limited to Chrome on MacOS - does any other browser
work?

Yes, this is correct on my side.

Could one of you report (as suggested by Nick) whether it works (or not) from
another browser on the Mac?

The fact it's limited to Mac would make me think of a font problem?  I'm using
Libertine through a require package in my "white" Beamer color theme (based on
the Org theme from Marcin Borkowski).

When viewing the fonts used in the document (via Adobe Acrobat,
"Properties..." > "Fonts"), they all seem "embedded". So, I don't
understand...

Plus I thought that SlideShare was making images of the slides, à la DocView!?
Seems not...

I am running MacOS 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) and I have just tried your slides (http://fr.slideshare.net/fniessen/org-modelatexexport) with two other browsers:

with Safari 5.1.9 (Mac default browser) I only get yellow rectangles. However, it does seems to work with Firefox 21.0.

Warm regards,
 Stefan

Mac 10.7.5, Firefox and Camino both show the code in the yellow
rectangles.

Snow Leopard 10.6.8:

- Chrome: only yellow boxes
- Safari: only yellow boxes
- Firefox: yellow boxes with code

Thanks to all for your tests. I'll report the problems to SlideShare -- I
think they must have the key. At least, I hope so.

For your information, I've opened a ticket on SlideShare. But it seems we
can't expect so good news for our Beamer slides:

  ╭──── http://help.slideshare.com/requests/42307 (full ticket report)
  │
  │ Let me send this off to my team to look into to see if this can be

  ╰────

Quite disappointing: we use the best tool to typeset our presentations,
and they are the worst when displayed on SlideShare...

BTW, I've now allowed (it wasn't "on" by default) downloading the original PDF
file from SlideShare. So, you can get the original file (about the LaTeX
exporter) in case you don't see correctly part of the pages at

Very nice! Really nice overview of side by side "translations" between Org
and LaTex.

Out of curiosity, why didn't the exponent and subscript examples get
rendered/converted on slide 22?

Thanks!

> Really nice overview of side by side "translations" between Org and LaTex.

Yes, I wanted to show the "problem" (horrible LaTeX syntax) and the "solution"
(just write what you meant, with almost no extra syntax in Org).

That made quite a shock to the attendants, even if they're used to the LaTeX
side: they were astonished that the Org syntax was so close to the "how it's
displayed" in the PDF -- mainly for the lists, but also for the tables.

> Out of curiosity, why didn't the exponent and subscript examples get

That's something I still haven't understood... The only one, and you spotted
it!

I tried all variations of ^:nil, ^:t and ^:{} but none translated the
super/sub-scripts correctly. A mystery that stays to be discovered...

Best regards,
Fabrice
