Start with standard Org and the standard export, see how it works and adjust from there. At the far end you can end up with a custom exporter based on ox-latex, but which gives special meanings to certain elements - this is what I ended up with for my CV in ox-awesomecv ( https://gitlab.com/zzamboni/org-cv/-/tree/awesomecv), but this was after a lot of experimentation and playing with the default Org exporters. Ultimately it depends on what type of document you are producing, so there can be no single all-encompassing solution. But really, start simple. Org and LaTeX are both complex enough as they are. --Diego --000000000000f04a1c05bf145322 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

The org export to latex only needs to be as complicated as you need it
to be. Org has variables which can be used to add/remove things from the preamble and once you have those configured, you don't have to put
anything in the org file itself. Start simple and add as you find a need rather than try to start with something complex which might not be
necessary.

I fully agree with Tim here = - don't make things more complicated than necessary! Start with standar= d Org and the standard export, see how it works and adjust from there.

Ultimately it depends on what type of document you are p= roducing, so there can be no single all-encompassing solution.
