Alternatively, you can define a new entry in org-export-latex-classes that does what you want - I just cribbed the existing beamer entry and modified it a bit (I had called it "beamerpdf14" at first, but apparently numerics are not allowed): ,---- | (require 'org-latex) | (setq beamerpdf '("beamerpdf" "\\pdfminorversion=4\\documentclass{beamer}" org-beamer-sectioning)) | (add-to-list 'org-export-latex-classes beamerpdf t) `---- and then set #+LATEX_CLASS: beamerpdf in your org file.
