Hi,

I'm a bloody beginner on org-mode so I still am searching my way through 
the oceans of informations about getting along with org-mode.

At the moment I am struggling with using latex-export and setting up (a) 
latex-class(es).

I found some great instructions on worg: Latex Export vor org-mode < 8.0 
<http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html>
  and it says to make some changes in .emacs like:

> (require  'ox-latex)

If I do that and eval-buffer emacs it reads:


> eval-buffer: Cannot open load file: ox-latex

Now I don't know if it means ox-latex doesn't exist at all ... however, 
I thought to look out for ox-latex in the web to download and push it in 
my .emacs.d ... hmmm ... even though there are bunches of 
ox-whatsoever-files I failed to find ox-latex ... so I think I'm 
thinking wrong ... :-(

Can anyone help me out here?

It sounds like you don't have a recent version of Org.   Please see the
installation instructions in the manual,

             http://orgmode.org/org.html

Hope it helps,
Rasmus

These instructions are for the old exporter.  The new exporter made many
of the old instructions obsolete.

I presume you're using Org mode 8?

The manual is a good starting place.

There are a couple of LaTeX export templates here:
http://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/index.html

There is one for annotated bibliographies and another for the Journal
PLOS One.  They should give examples of how the LaTeX exporter can be
customized.

hth,
Tom

The instructions are for Org < 8... but why would those instructions
mention ox-latex? I thought all the ox-* stuff came through only with
8.0? Or was the ox-* convention earlier than I realize?

I think we'll need to start from the beginning. Could you let us know:

- how dd you install org-mode (Emacs package, git, did you extract a
.zip from somewhere, other)?
- where is that org-mode directory (e.g. /some/path/to/org-mode)?
- what's in your .emacs file related to org-mode basics (load-path,
require ox-* statements)?
- what do you get with this command in emacs:

M-x org-version

Perhaps we can get you going with a standard/default LaTeX export,
which will let you move on toward custom classes (and I think Thomas'
email already has some nice tips along that direction).


Thanks,
John
