Well, it seems that if you use ":imagemagick yes", the image is created
with the `org-babel-latex-convert-pdf' function. I almost always use this
to create images from latex blocks, for example:
#+begin_src latex: imagemagick yes :iminoptions -density 600
\bfseries Hello world!
#+end_src
":fit" crop the image, but you can also put in your "org-format-latex-header"
"\\documentclass[varwidth]{standalone}"
On the contrary, without :imagemagick, but with results to *.png file,
`org-create-formula-image' is used, which depends on
"org-preview-latex-process-alist" and
"org-preview-latex-default-process". Since I only use LuaTeX for
everything, I have this in my init, in order to preview LaTeX fragments:
(setq luamagick
'(luamagick
:programs ("lualatex" "convert")
:description "pdf > png"
:message "you need to install lualatex and imagemagick."
:use-xcolor t
:image-input-type "pdf"
:image-output-type "png"
:image-size-adjust (1.0 . 1.0)
:latex-compiler ("lualatex -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory
%o %f")
:image-converter ("convert -density %D -trim -antialias %f -quality 100
%O")))
(add-to-list 'org-preview-latex-process-alist luamagick)
(setq org-preview-latex-default-process 'luamagick)
Note that the -trim option for the "convert" program (last line) allows
you to crop the image from the pdf page.
Best regards,
Juan Manuel

Hi Eric,

I'm not sure, but maybe the problem comes from the
\documentclass{article} in org-format-latex-header. Can you try
replacing that with "\\documentclass[varwidth]{standalone}"?
Another possibility: please try adding the header arg. :imagemagick yes
Best regards,

They both use the same LaTeX src block (as was in the attachment) which creates an org link to the generated PDF or PNG file. It's the generation of the image file that is the problem, not how the file is used in the end unfortunately. > C-h v RET org-format-latex-header RET: what value?

puzzled about :fit for LaTeX src block
I hope somebody here on this list can help me solve a puzzling situation. I have a LaTeX src block which creates an image using tikz. In a book I'm writing, the image, when created as a png, does not get shrunk but is instead a full page (with the actual diagram in the top left corner). If I create a PDF, instead, it works fine. I have extracted this src block into a minimal file (attached). For that file, the image creation works fine whether I create a png or a PDF. I have gone through the settings in the book file but cannot find anything that would affect this behaviour. I am hoping somebody can suggest what it might be that makes the png image not be shrunk! Both emacs and org from git as of this morning. Thank you, eric -- : Eric S Fraga, with org release_9.5.2-298-g1f48d2 in Emacs 29.0.50 t.org Description: Lotus Organizer
