Dear All,

I've told Org about the letter class with the following in my init file:
```
(with-eval-after-load 'ox-latex
(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes '("letter" "\\documentclass{letter}")) )
```

After that I can create a org document containing e.g.:
```
#+latex_class: letter
#+latex_header: \signature{M. Pger}#+latex_header: \address{42 My Street \\ My Town}

#+latex: \begin{letter}{Org mailing-list \\ 42 GNU Street \\ GNU Town}
#+latex: \date{September 2022}#+latex: \opening{Dear Members of the Org mailing-list,}

Here is the text of the letter.

#+latex: \closing{Yours faithfully,}
#+latex: \end{letter}

```

When I export it using C-c C-e l o, an error appears:
```
(/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/natbib/natbib.sty

! LaTeX Error: Environment thebibliography undefined.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.
...

l.1063 \renewenvironment{thebibliography}
[1]{%
?
! Emergency stop.
...

l.1063 \renewenvironment{thebibliography}
[1]{%! ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
```

In order to have a pdf output, I can use -interaction=nonstopmode​ in the org-latex-pdf-process​, but of course the error is still there (but now I have a pdf, which is good). Exporting from org, the error is there whenever I use latexmk​ (with pdflatex​) or directly pdflatex​.

However, there is no error when creating such a letter from a .tex file in Auctex (which appears to also use pdflatex​ as the compiler).

Any thoughts?

Best,

M

Hi,

for what it may help...

my emacs version:

GNU Emacs 29.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.20,
cairo version 1.16.0)
 of 2022-09-12

Adding
#+OPTIONS: toc:nil
to your MWE

I have this small file to export to latex:
```
(require 'org)
(require 'ox-latex)

(eval-after-load "org"
  (progn
    ;; Add KOMA script based books
    (add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
                 '("letter"
                   "\\documentclass{letter}"))

    (setq org-latex-pdf-process '("latexmk -bibtex -f %f")
          org-babel-python-command "python3")))

```
And I use it as:

```
emacs -Q --batch test.org -l org-export.el -f org-latex-export-to-pdf
```

And I see no errors...

Maybe you could try from here and start stripping things further from it to
narrow the problem

Hope it helps...
