Re: [Orgmode] Bibtex and latex export

[Erik Iverson]

Rafael,

I asked the same question last week :).

http://www.mail-archive.com/address@hidden/msg30073.html


I've just now looked into the org-latex.el file, and found:

(defcustom org-latex-to-pdf-process
  '("pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"
    "pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f")
  "Commands to process a LaTeX file to a PDF file.
This is a list of strings, each of them will be given to the shell
as a command.  %f in the command will be replaced by the full file name, %b
by the file base name (i.e. without extension) and %o by the base directory
of the file.
The reason why this is a list is that it usually takes several runs of
pdflatex, maybe mixed with a call to bibtex.  Org does not have a clever
mechanism to detect which of these commands have to be run to get to a 
stable
result, and it also does not do any error checking.

Alternatively, this may be a Lisp function that does the processing, so you
could use this to apply the machinery of AUCTeX or the Emacs LaTeX mode.
This function should accept the file name as its single argument."
  :group 'org-export-pdf
  :type '(choice (repeat :tag "Shell command sequence"
                  (string :tag "Shell command"))
                 (function)))


Looks like you can just customize that variable, easy!
