Giving latex attributes to sections in export

Giving latex attributes to sections in export

Hi,


I just emailed a similar question about tables... but how can one pass latex
options inside of sections/subsections? I'd like something like this in my
report:

* History of experiments
introduction text goes here... blah blah blah. A history of experiments and
corresponding data tables will follow.

\begin{landscape}

** Date of experiment 1
*** Conditions
*** Data
|table|of|data

** Date of experiment 1
*** Conditions
*** Data
|table|of|data

\end{landscape}

* Conclusion

So... I'd like the report in portrait mode, but my tables are long enough
that it makes sense to switch entirely to landscape for that portion of the
report and then switch back for portrait for discussion. At present if I do
either:

\begin{landscape}

#+BEGIN_LaTeX
\begin{landscape}
#+END_LaTeX

then org-mode ignores the following section. It DOES actually rotate the
orientation, but the tables are all in ASCII format and in the matching .tex
file, instead of \subsection{name}, I just get a literal export of the
subsection asterisks ("*** subsection name') exactly how it looks in
org-mode. Something triggers org-mode to stop translating from org-mode
structure into LaTeX. I've checked possible uses for property drawers and
#+ATTR_LATEX seems only to apply to images... just not sure how to slip in
various latex commands as they are needed.


Best regards,
John
