Re: [O] General advice beyond Org

Just an update to let you know that I decided to migrate from Org-mode+LaTeX to ODF-and-related, particularly because of LPPL+GPL incompatibility, caused by LaTeX and related projects and because ODF-and-related are easier for the other people to participate and see the changes (no need to compile

If I recall correctly, org-mode uses GNU's Debbugs, see . Reports are sent to . The report-emacs-bug procedure already sets almost everything for you, including the address mentioned above. I hope this helps. ;)

Re: [O] ox-bibtex

On a related topic, I wish there was a way for Org to export BibTeX references to other formats besides LaTeX and PDF. I once relied on some package, org-bibtex to do the trick along with a set of Emacs Lisp scripts that were run with Babel ([1]), but found out that I was doing more Lisp

Re: [O] Can export the files with bibliography only to LaTeX

Interesting... Is this really a requirement? Did you actually asked which formats they support? Perhaps with careful negotiation, you might come up with good outcomes. For example: support for sending your work as PDF, TXT or HTML. In the case of HTML, you can use any of these to convert your

Re: [O] Can export the files with bibliography only to LaTeX

Indeed, Pandoc is a way out ;) I just would advise against converting from LaTeX to Word DOC. I'd say stick to LaTeX and PDF. This is important because: just like PDF, DOC (and also DOCX and ODF-family) is sometimes binary file, but beyond that: DOC is not standardized, and one can't edit a DOC

The best approach for me is also to use something such as org-publish, and a simple static site server such as GNU Serveez. If you want server-side programming using GNU Guile, dynamic pages or dynamic output/return of .csv/.json files, then the upcomming GNU Artanis might be a good start. I

Strange, I might be wrong but this might not be set by default. I have Org version 9.1.2 (9.1.2-15.g1d5142, which is of version 20171016 in GNU Guix package manager). Alternatively, per `texdoc babel', you can make the language as a document class option. 2017-11-26T09:07:44+0100

I forgot to mention... To tell Emacs Org mode that you want a .pdf, customize the "org-latex-pdf-process" variable. To do so, do, visit: [[help:org-latex-pdf-process]] and click the "customize" link. Near the name, you will see a "Value Menu" buttom, it has latexmk there.

Oh... Are you generating .dvi or .pdf? Commonly, .dvi is generated by running: `latex [File path.]' or `latexmk [File path.]'. And, .pdf is commonly generated by running: `pdflatex [File path.]' or `latexmk -pdf [File path.]'. If generating .dvi, the "space" option won't work.

This somehow happens to be problematic to me too, if for some reason the inclusion of the file isn't made by Org mode itself. For example, we know that "#+INCLUDE:" keywords at the start of the line are Org mode specific includes, and you can place the file references in the first argument with
