This is missing a `'(…)´ around the string. But you should rather use customize to change that variable, which should be a list of strings (just on in your case). Org-latex needs to have been loaded before the variable can be customized, however. > 2) put this in ~/.profile: > PDFLATEX="pdflatex --shell-escape" > export PDFLATEX You might not want to do this either. The canonical way to set the environment for a single command is to define it right there with the invocation of the command. (setq org-latex-to-pdf-process "PDFLATEX=\"pdflatex --shell-escape\" texi2dvi -p %f") Or if your system still had the locale bug even (setq org-latex-to-pdf-process "LC_ALL=C PDFLATEX=\"pdflatex --shell-escape\" texi2dvi -p %f") Regards, Achim. -- +<[Q+ Matrix-12 WAVE#46+305 Neuron microQkb Andromeda XTk Blofeld]>+ Wavetables for the Terratec KOMPLEXER: http://Synth.Stromeko.net/Downloads.html#KomplexerWaves
