[bug?, ox-latex] creator not commented out

[Rasmus]

Hi,

In ox-latex :creator is inserted according to

     ;; Creator.
     (and (plist-get info :with-creator)
	  (concat (plist-get info :creator) "\n"))

Is it on purpose that if :with-creator is non-nil and :creator is the
default value, then it's inserted in the pdf, i.e. without being prefixed
with %?

This "sort of" breaks the creator field for hyperref.  Now we neither have
the Org string nor the default LaTeX string.  We could make creator
unconditional for meta data (makes sense) and ask people to remove %c from
the respective template*s*(!) if they don't want it...

Also, there's no longer a "created with org"-tag at the bottom of html
pages by default.  This is not necessarily bad.

You need to set `org-export-with-creator' to t. We can also patch
`org-latex--format-spec' to skip ?c entry altogether when the variable
is nil, in order to get default LaTeX string.

This is what "ox-html" does, AFAICT.

Either way is fine with me. Do you want to make the change?

This was a misinterpretation of `comment' value in "ox-html.el". Anyway,
I think this is fine.

But as I started by saying this adds the creator as inline-text in latex
cf. the end of org-latex-template.

ATM no ad is exported in the postamble.  It used to printed in 8.2.  I
don't mind not having it.

Yeah, but I don't know what the right change is.  I can remove the creator
part from the ox-latex template and make the hyperref spec ignore
:with-creator.

What about keeping the creator part at the end of the template and
ignore :with-creator in the hyperref spec?

Fixed in e9fd199.

In e9fd199 meta-data is always available via the specs in ox-latex and
always inserted in ox-odt.  An empty generator, which could be produced
before, is definitely wrong cf:

http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part1.html#__RefHeading__1415092_253892949

But we could allow for no meta generator field, if that's desirable.  I
guess the rightᵀᴹ approach would be to make the meta data configurable as
with hyperref.

Sounds good.
