Table in org-mode not to be exported to latex

Table in org-mode not to be exported to latex

[Sharon Kimble]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1639 bytes --]


How can I have an org-mode table in an org-mode document that is
exported to latex, but the table is *NOT* exported, please?

This is the table that I'm using -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
| date       | change                   | version |
|------------+--------------------------+---------|
| 2016/11/18 | initial draft            |     1.0 |
| 2017/05/04 | put in models of grief   |     1.5 |
| 2017/05/16 | removed creative commons |     1.6 |
|            |                          |         |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I've tried putting it in a drawer, but when the document is exported to
latex and the pdf built, it still shows the table.

I've tried setting it up as below, but it then refuses to build the pdf. 

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEGIN_SRC :exports no
| date       | change                   | version |
|------------+--------------------------+---------|
| 2016/11/18 | initial draft            |     1.0 |
| 2017/05/04 | put in models of grief   |     1.5 |
| 2017/05/16 | removed creative commons |     1.6 |
|            |                          |         |
#+END_SRC
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I've looked at 'The Org Manual' version 9.0.7 but I can't see how to do
it there either.

Any ideas please?

Thanks
Sharon.

Hello,

maybe something like

#+BEGIN_SRC org :exports none
| date       | change                   | version |
|------------+--------------------------+---------|
| 2016/11/18 | initial draft            |     1.0 |
| 2017/05/04 | put in models of grief   |     1.5 |
| 2017/05/16 | removed creative commons |     1.6 |
|            |                          |         |
#+END_SRC

Best wishes,

Jeremie

Thanks for this Jeremie, unfortunately its failing.

With this as my table in a block

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEGIN_SRC org :exports none
| date       | change                   | version |
|------------+--------------------------+---------|
| 2016/11/18 | initial draft            |     1.0 |
| 2017/05/04 | put in models of grief   |     1.5 |
| 2017/05/16 | removed creative commons |     1.6 |
|            |                          |         |
#+END_SRC
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It fails showing this in the latex file

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\lstset{language=org,label= ,caption= ,captionpos=b,numbers=none}
\begin{lstlisting}

| date       | change                   | version |
|------------+--------------------------+---------|

|            |                          |         |
\end{lstlisting}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Sorry, but could this be related to the fact that I haven't defined any
tables in my preamble?

Thanks
Sharon.

I think that you are just missing out the language specifier there. Try:

Unfortunately, with this as my block of table

Will :exports none suppress export?

All the best,

This works for me. Duplicates what others have said, so I think
something is goofed on your end or you're not combining all of the
answers?

### begin org ###

* heading

#+begin_src org :exports none

| date       | change                   | version |
|------------+--------------------------+---------|
| 2016/11/18 | initial draft            |     1.0 |
| 2017/05/04 | put in models of grief   |     1.5 |
| 2017/05/16 | removed creative commons |     1.6 |
#+end_src

### end org ###

That results in (C-e l L, as I don't actually have texlive on this system):

### begin latex ###

\begin{document}

\tableofcontents

\section{heading}
\label{sec:orge9ebafa}
\end{document}

### end latex ###

You're sure you have org for the src type *and* none for results? My
suspicion is the cause as no vs. none:

I tend to "hide" things like this (data tables, source codes) that I do
not want exported within an inline task with :noexport: tag.  Useful for
having the data/code close to where it might be used without having to
work around the hierarchical structure of org headings.

Thanks for this Eric.

Unfortunately, with this as my table block

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEGIN_SRC org :noexport:
| date       | change                   | version |
|------------+--------------------------+---------|

|            |                          |         |
#+END_SRC
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Its failing but showing this in my latex output -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\lstset{language=org,label= ,caption= ,captionpos=b,numbers=none}
\begin{lstlisting}

\end{lstlisting}

Sorry, but could this be related to me not defining any tables in my
preamble?

Thanks

No, this is not what I suggested.  Others have suggested this and I have
no idea if this is meant to work or not.  What I suggested is hiding the
table within an inline task, as in this example:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Normal heading
*************** hidden table                    :noexport:
| date       | change                   | version |
|------------+--------------------------+---------|
| 2016/11/18 | initial draft            |     1.0 |
| 2017/05/04 | put in models of grief   |     1.5 |
| 2017/05/16 | removed creative commons |     1.6 |
|            |                          |         |
*************** END
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

You would probably want to name the table so you can access it
elsewhere, of course.

Thanks for this Eric, it works beautifully, and doesn't show in the PDF
file. I shall definetly use this in other projects. :)

Thanks

Glad it worked.  Inline tasks are actually quite useful for exports in
many different ways.  I use them for end-notes (as opposed to footnotes)
and for margin notes, depending on what the document is for.  You can
customise org-latex-format-inlinetask (and imagine equivalently for
other export targets?).
