My immediate response would be to ask why you aren't using \maketitle given that the command is beamer-aware? That is, \maketitle will create a title page whose format is defined by the beamer theme you have selected. Otherwise, you could always customise =org-export-latex-title-command= to nothing and use direct latex code to do what you want: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+begin_latex \begin{frame} \titlepage \end{frame} #+end_latex --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I've not tried this. > 2. \alert command does not work - even with the additions to .emacs > suggested here: > http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg21507.html > (And there are no errors in running the .emacs file) > Always the @ symbol appears in the latex created from org as @. Can you tell us exactly what you have done to customise the relevant variables and where you have done these customisations? Difficult to help without this information unfortunately. While we're at it, org and emacs version information is also helpful. -- : Eric S Fraga (GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D) in Emacs 24.0.50.1 : using Org-mode version 7.4 (release_7.4.221.g4007c) _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
