Just use \pagebreak in your Org file.

No.
5. It is possible when i export a org file in pdf It is possible to

Yes - customize `org-export-latex-classes' to your needs, adding
\documentclass[11pt]{article} where it makes sense.
6. Finaly it is possible to make a table that i use a lot a form that
i can fill and it is possible with i don't know a short-cut or
something to call this form when i need it.
It's not currently possible, but we can imagine a helper function for
that. For now I would suggest: just store the empty table in a register:
select the table, `C-x r s', then `C-x r i' when you want to insert the
empty table again.

Re: [O] org file for reference card?
Hi Vikas,
Vikas Rawal vikasli...@agrarianresearch.org writes:
I will try to produce an org file but the real utility would be if we
could find a way to produce a pdf out it.
We can write a dedicated exporter for that. Basically, it just needs to
insert a specific header (see doc/orgcard.tex) and to convert list items
into \key{...}{...} entries -- those kinds of things are now possible
with org-element.el and org-export.el.
My skills are limited and I
really do not know if there is a way to specify a template that will
export the org file with the desired layout.
The utility of an org file (against a tex or a pdf file) will be that
the org gile will allow users to to easily customise their
refcards.
Yes -- I completely agree.
That is, if I am interested in a subset of commands rather
than the whole set, an org file could be easily edited and then
exported.
Wonder if it interests the community.
At least I am interested :) Having an org-clone of the Org reference
card on worg is a good start IMHO.

1., 2., 3. and 5. are really LaTeX questions. Both 1. and 2. can be obtained by
using
the appropriate LaTeX class, e.g.
#+LaTeX_CLASS: report
at the top of your document will give you a dedicated title page, vertically
centered,
and a dedicated TOC with a page break afterwards. But it will also give you
Parts and
Chapters, in addition to Sections, etc. which may not be what you want. You can
certainly customize all of that in LaTeX, but I suspect that it's going to be a
fair
amount of work.
You can change the font size of the text globally by adding something like:
#+LaTeX: \huge
at the top of your file. This will only take effect after the TOC however, and
it
will not affect the font size of headings, IIUC. You can also wrap a portion of
the
text like this:
#+LaTeX: {\huge
some text
#+LaTeX: }
to make font size changes locally.
You can also change the interline spacing, (see e.g. p. 136 of the french
version
of A not-so-short introduction to LaTeX by Tobias Oetiker
http://mirror.math.ku.edu/tex-archive/info/lshort/french/lshort-fr.pdf
) by changing \baselineskip appropriately.
I don't understand 4. - it might be a good idea for you to provide an example
of what you want.
There are various ways to accomplish 6. : you can put the template in a file,
define a function to insert the file and bind it to a key, you can define a
macro
or a function that inserts what you want, you can use any of the abbrev/template
systems that emacs provides...
Here is a bare-bones implementation of the first idea: you have a file
/home/stevep/lib/org/templates/my-favorite-table.org
with the table template in it.
You define a function (put this stuff in your .emacs):
(defun stevep-org-insert-my-favorite-table-template ()
(interactive)
(insert-file /home/stevep/lib/org/templates/my-favorite-table.org))
and you bind it to function-key F4 (probably not a good idea, but this is just
an example):
(define-key global-map [f4] 'stevep-org-insert-my-favorite-table-template)

Re: [O] [bug] Symbol's function definition is void: org-pop-to-buffer-same-window
Just wanted to add a line here. I also encountered this problem when upgrading to Emacs 24.0.92 on windows and started using ELPA to install the newest release of Org. Sebastiens comments were helpful in finding the reason for this. It seems to relate to the fact that everything handled by ELPA doesn't load until after the init file. Org (from ELPA) is auto-loaded first when called by the user but the settings done in the init file still remains from the default org-mode installation causing problems as this. I solved it by adding the function (package-initialize) to my init file before calling org to do things for me. I don't know if this has any bad side-effects yet.. But please point at a better solution if one comes to mind.

Explicitly Loading `org-compat' does cure this problem... But we must miss a `require' somewhere, but where? In `org.el' itself? I've just been bitten by this as well. requiring org-compat manually did nothing. My config files have not changed, just pulled latest org-mode, did a make clean and make. Suddenly my org-drill sessions don't work. Did you restart emacs? Yes. I did just then and same thing. Do you get the error with org-drill only or do you get it in the instances that Seb and Kenny Meyer report? If the former, it may be a bug with org-drill. Otherwise, I throw up my hands: I certainly cannot reproduce it. FYI: - I don't use .elc files. - I've recently upgraded to Emacs 24.0.91.1 on Windows -- not sure if the problem appeared directly after, or a little bit before. - I began suspecting work that I could have done in a branch, and mixed versions that way -- as I'm not yet familiar with git and switching between branches. - I've deleted all my Org directory, and cloned a fresh one But it still occurs. Though: - Requiring org-compat does cure the problem. - I see calls to org-compat in every crucial Org file -- I don't understand where it could be missing. - I still must try to dissecate my .emacs, or use a minimal Emacs config file to see if it's reproducible that way. So, what was the problem in my case? I've been trying to use the starter kit approach, and have a 2-file system: - ~/.emacs - ~/emacs/site-lisp/seb-conf.el (tangled from its .txt equivalent) which contains add-to-load-path calls for all packages (Org, Gnus, etc.) and all my customization. In ~/.emacs, I've replaced my previous: (require 'seb-conf) by (defun starter-kit-load ...) (defun starter-kit-compile ...) (starter-kit-load emacs/site-lisp/seb-conf.txt) Doing so, as it now calls `org-babel-load-file' (in `starter-kit-load'), and as that function is autoloaded in Emacs 24, Emacs was loading the Org version bundled with Emacs 24.0.91.1 -- that is, not the latest one, not the one in my Git working copy. This is very tricky to spot, IMHO, as all the checks done after Emacs has been started up will give partially false answers: (locate-library org-compat) shows my git version as the load-path has been updated at the very beginning of loading `seb-conf'. In summary: - this is explained, and due to a mistake of mine; - this is quite tricky to detect; - this is a mix of different Org versions which causes the reported symptom.

Ugh.
The problem it is possible to cancel the default latex title page in
my org-file.
It is possible te place the table of content after the custom title page.
I know that is latex question but i want to rest in my .org file and
not edit my .tex file.
This is actually not a latex question: the org latex exporter does these
things in a standard way. It may be possible to override some or all of
this behavior, but I haven't checked because I think there is a better
method.
If I were you, what I would do is make my own LaTeX class. Start from
the one closest to the desired result (probably article), incorporate
whatever changes you want from report.cls (in particular, the page
breaks you want), make whatever changes you want to the \title, \author
etc. macros, save the result as myarticle.cls in the same directory as
your org file, and add an entry for it to org-export-latex-classes. Then
add a
#+LaTeX_CLASS: myarticle
to your org file and off you go.
In more detail:
1) I copied the official article.cls to myarticle.cls in the current
directory with
cp $(kpsewhich article.cls) myarticle.cls
2) In myarticle.cls, I changed \@titlepagefalse to \@titlepagetrue in
order to get a separate title page, and I added a \newpage at the end
of the \tableofcontents macro (btw, report.cls does the latter in a
subtler way, but never mind about that) and just for the heck of it,
I also changed the baselinestretch - but I think this last is better done
in a different way [fn:1]:

Footnotes:
[fn:1] Bastien is right that redefining \baselinestretch is better than
mucking around with the \baselineskip as I suggested (see
e.g. http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=linespace )
It's probably even better to do it like this however:
--8---cut here---start-8---
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage{setspace}\doublespacing
--8---cut here---end---8---
or
--8---cut here---start-8---
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage{setspace}\onehalfspacing
--8---cut here---end---8---
or if you don't like the built-in factors, choose your own:
--8---cut here---start-8---
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage{setspace}\setstretch{1.3}
--8---cut here---end---8---
BTW, I think the factors are logarithmic: doublespacing is about 1.66
and onehalfspacing is 1.25 or so (depending on the font size).

Up to you! I can't guarantee this is right; I'm on a work computer and did
this on my home one.

convince
the org latex exporter not to produce a title page, right? Is it something
simple
like omitting #+TITLE and #+AUTHOR?

One has to either a) explicitly have an empty #+TITLE: or b) set
org-export-latex-title-command to . The in-file setting for the latter
is
#+BIND: org-export-latex-title-command
but
#+TITLE:
is easier :-)

Re: [O] Please test the new Makefile
Hi Bastien, I have tried to install the new package in my clean VM of Suse 12.1. I'd like to report my install experience. http://orgmode.org/Org-7.8.03-TestMakefile.zip 1. When I just type make, I find a fatal error message: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount parent ) Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set). 2. make all works well with the same message above. make all will be the default command instead of make? 3. Packages are installed into /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp. This is a known change in ML. 4. M-x org-version shows: ( @ /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/org/org-install.el) Best regards, Takaaki Ishikawa GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (x86_64-suse-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.7) of 2011-10-30 on build17

Good point. Yes. Now that I'm back at home I looked at the document and the
header stuff in the document in which I used this technique is:
#+OPTIONS: toc:nil TeX:t LaTeX:t H:4 f:t todo:nil num:nil tags:nil
#+BIND: org-export-latex-title-command
#+text: \input{./title-page.tex}
* first headline
Neat tip about just doing #+title: ; hadn't realized a blank would do the
same as the bind entry!

Carsten pointed that out in one of the threads that I referred to in my other email. I hadn't realized it back then and I didn't remember it now until I found that thread. Time to get a new brain... Nick PS. ... and thank goodness for the mailing list archives.
