Aloha Chris,
Thanks for pointing out the bug in the tutorial. I've pushed up a
change to Worg.
I don't know if you've seen my attempt to make a custom LaTeX article
class for org-mode export, but it might have something useful to you.
It is here:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/examples/article-class.php
All the best,
Tom

Hi Tom,
That fixed it - I figured it was something simple. Thanks!

Hi,
I'm a n00b to Lisp and org-mode so please forgive me if the answer
is obvious. I'm using version 7.01h of org-mode.
I'm trying to set up a custom Latex class to use for preparing a
document. Some Google searching showed that I need to add this class
to the org-export-latex-classes symbol. I tried to do this in
my .emacs file, for example following what is listed at http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.php
by adding the following to my .emacs file:
(add-to-list 'org-export-latex-classes
'("article"
"\\documentclass{article}"
("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")))
I know that org-export-latex-default-class is already set to
"article" but this example already shows that something is wrong.
When I load emacs the debugger complains that org-export-latex-
classes is an empty list:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable org-export-latex-classes)
add-to-list(org-export-latex-classes ("article" "\
\documentclass{article}" ("$
eval-buffer(#<buffer *load*> nil "/home/cmalone/.emacs" nil t) ;
Reading at$
load-with-code-conversion("/home/cmalone/.emacs" "/home/
cmalone/.emacs" t t)
load("~/.emacs" t t)
#[nil "^H\205\276^@ \306=\203...@\307^h\310q\202a^@ \311=\2033^@
\312\307\31$
command-line()
normal-top-level()
As far as I can tell, org-export-latex-classes is set to nil in org-
latex.el, but this isn't loaded until the export dispatcher calls
org-export-as-latex. Is this correct? Coincidentally, if I export to
latex, the appropriate .tex file is created without issue.
My original goal was to setup a custom Latex class - I have tried in
the same manner as that used above for the "article" class and the
debugger produces the same result. However, when I attempt to export
to latex I get the error that my custom class isn't in the org-
export-latex-classes list, presumably because of the failure in
loading the .emacs file.
Any advice?

Hi Chris,
My tutorial might have been over-optimistic about the ease of
configuration. Perhaps you also need this in your .emacs before you
add-to-list:
(require 'org-latex)
All the best,
Tom
