The whole process works well, except that it seems that some bits of the exportation are not executed. Here's an example of what I do. I'm using the org-interaction.el file from Blorgit: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (require 'org) (require 'cl) (setq font-lock-mode t) (defun refresh-then-find-file (file) "Find file ensuring that the latest changes on disk are represented in the file." (let (file-buf) (while (setq file-buf (get-file-buffer file)) (kill-buffer file-buf)) (find-file file))) (defmacro with-temp-filebuffer (file &rest body) "Open FILE into a temporary buffer execute BODY there like `progn', then kill the FILE buffer returning the result of evaluating BODY." (let ((temp-result (make-symbol "temp-result")) (temp-file (make-symbol "temp-file"))) `(let (,temp-result ,temp-file) (refresh-then-find-file ,file) (setf ,temp-file (current-buffer)) (setf ,temp-result (progn ,@body)) (kill-buffer ,temp-file) ,temp-result))) ;; (defvar org-interaction-prefix ".exported_") (defvar org-interaction-prefix "") (defun org-file-to-html (file-path) "Open up an org file, publish it to html, and then return the html as a string." (let* ((file-name (file-name-nondirectory file-path)) (file-dir (file-name-directory file-path)) (html-path (expand-file-name (concat org-interaction-prefix file-name) file-dir))) (if (and (file-exists-p html-path) (< 0 (time-to-seconds (time-subtract (nth 5 (file-attributes html-path)) (nth 5 (file-attributes file-path)))))) html-path (with-temp-filebuffer file-path (org-mode) (save-window-excursion (org-export-as-html-to-buffer nil) (write-file html-path) (kill-buffer (current-buffer))))))) (defun org-file-to-latex (file-path) "Open up an org file, publish it to latex, and then return the latex as a string." (let* ((file-name (file-name-nondirectory file-path)) (file-dir (file-name-directory file-path)) (latex-path (expand-file-name (concat org-interaction-prefix file-name ".tex") file-dir))) (if (and (file-exists-p latex-path) (< 0 (time-to-seconds (time-subtract (nth 5 (file-attributes latex-path)) (nth 5 (file-attributes file-path)))))) latex-path (with-temp-filebuffer file-path (org-mode) (save-window-excursion (org-export-as-latex-to-buffer nil) (write-file latex-path) (kill-buffer (current-buffer))))))) (defun org-file-to-pdf (file-path) "Open up an org file and export it as pdf." (let* ((file-name (file-name-sans-extension file-path)) (file-dir (file-name-directory file-path)) (org-tmp-path (make-temp-file "org-file-to-pdf-")) (pdf-tmp-path (concat org-tmp-path ".pdf")) (tex-tmp-path (concat org-tmp-path ".tex")) (pdf-path (expand-file-name (concat org-interaction-prefix file-name ".pdf") file-dir))) (if (and (file-exists-p pdf-path) (< 0 (time-to-seconds (time-subtract (nth 5 (file-attributes pdf-path)) (nth 5 (file-attributes file-path)))))) pdf-path (with-temp-filebuffer file-path (write-file org-tmp-path) (org-mode) (save-window-excursion (org-export-as-pdf nil) (rename-file pdf-tmp-path pdf-path t) (delete-file org-tmp-path) ;; (delete-file tex-tmp-path) (kill-buffer (current-buffer))))))) ;; customization ;; (setq org-export-blocks-witheld '(hidden comment)) ;; Start the server ;; (server-start) ;; save the emacsclient server socket location ;; (with-temp-file "/tmp/emacsclient-socket-dir" ;; (insert server-socket-dir)) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Here's the file I'm trying to convert (test.org): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+TITLE: Features report #+AUTHOR: Francesco Pizzolante #+EMAIL: fpz-djc/iPCCuDYQheJpep6IedvLeJWuRmrY@public.gmane.org #+DATE: 2010-04-19 #+DESCRIPTION: #+KEYWORDS: #+LANGUAGE: en_US #+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [a4paper] * First test ** tatatata --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- On the command line, I run the following command: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- emacs --batch -l org-interaction.el --eval "(org-file-to-latex \"~/test.org\")" --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- My observation is that the #+LATEX_CLASS_OPTIONS are not taken into account. I can add any option there, I always see the default one (11pt). It is really strange because if I add a #+LATEX_CLASS directive, this one is well taken into account and I get the desired class. I don't know whether it's a bug somewhere or whether I miss some arguments somewhere... I also tested whith Blorgit and it is the same behavior (options not exported).
