Usually amsmath is good to have (and Nicolas answered on how to include
it), but if you wish to avoid it for some reason, the {displaymath}
environment does the same thing.

This seems to be because org-mode exports x^2 as x\^2 in the tex file.
I think exporting it as x\^{}2 would give a better result.
This should be now fixed. Thank you for reporting this.

Re: [O] unexpected appearance of x^2 in pdf file
Hi Nicolas, Thanks for fixing that last problem, that's great! I've also come across a couple of other unexpected results exporting other latex equations to pdf. Examples are given in the attached org file. Both are quite trivial with easy work-arounds. In both cases, because the embedded png equations (displayed by C-c C-x C-l) are formatted correctly, the problem in the exported pdf file might go unnoticed.

\[ x = y
+1 \]
\[ x = y
+ 1 \]
This is to be expected. In the second case, the second line defines
a list item, which has precedence over any LaTeX snippet.
\[ x = \begin{array}{cc}
y u \\
z v
\end{array} \]
\[ x =
\begin{array}{cc}
y u \\
z v
\end{array} \]
I think this is because of a limitation on the number of lines a LaTeX
snippet can span across (IIRC, 3 is the maximum).
In both cases, I suggest to use LaTeX environments instead:
\begin{equation*}
x = y
+ 1
\end{equation*}
and
\begin{equation*}
x =
\begin{array}{cc}
y u \\
z v
\end{array}
\end{equation*}

Nicolas,

+ 1 \]

a list item, which has precedence over any LaTeX snippet.
Okay, I realised it was switching to the itemise environment, but I
didn't know it took precedence over the latex environment.
\[ x = \begin{array}{cc}
y u \\
z v
\end{array} \]
\[ x =
\begin{array}{cc}
y u \\
z v
\end{array} \]
I think this is because of a limitation on the number of lines a LaTeX
snippet can span across (IIRC, 3 is the maximum).
Maybe, but I see the same problem with the following two line example
\[ x =
\begin{array}{cc} z v \end{array} \]
In both cases, I suggest to use LaTeX environments instead:
\begin{equation*}
x = y
+ 1
\end{equation*}
Yes, I tried that, but as I understand it I need to
\usepackage{amsmath} to access the latex equation* environment. But
then I get an error about Command \iint already defined. I tried
the solution described at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=alreadydef, but it
didn't work for me.
Anyway, never mind, these are all quite trivial points.
Thanks very much for your help,
Paul

Technically, this is a latex fragment, not a latex environment (which is
what I suggested to use). The difference is that the former is inline
(i.e. it is contained in a paragraph) whereas the latter isn't.
Non-inline elements always have precedence over inline ones.
\[ x = \begin{array}{cc}
y u \\
z v

\begin{array}{cc}
y u \\

A package is conflicting with amsmath, probably wasysym. Try to add
nointegrals option to wasysym in `org-latex-default-packages-alist'.

[O] unexpected appearance of x^2 in pdf file
Dear list,
I may be under a misapprehension, but I expected the pdf output
(created by C-c C-e l p) from the attached org file to show similar
results for both lines. Instead, however, the simple
x^2
outside of the verbatim environment puts the caret above the 2 even
though I have set
#+OPTIONS: ^:nil
This seems to be because org-mode exports x^2 as x\^2 in the tex file.
I think exporting it as x\^{}2 would give a better result. Is there
another way to get the appearance I'm looking for without using the
verbatim environment?
Thanks for your advice,
Paul
PS. I'm using Emacs 24.2.1 with Org mode 8.0.2.
