[Orgmode] Giving latex attributes to sections in export

[John Hendy]

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
