Hi Suvayu,
this did help, indeed. Thanks a lot. I did not think it was that easy.
I found, that I can just omit the documentclass from the
org-latex-classes.
So, now I have:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
'("bare"
"
\[NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
\[NO-PACKAGES]
\[EXTRA]"
("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This should work in most cases.
To use this I do:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+OPTIONS: toc:nil author:nil skip:nil
#+LATEX_CLASS: bare
#+LATEX_HEADER: % everything from the template
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
One problem remains, though: orgmode keeps messing with the title.
I can, of course, set the title through #+TITLE: but I would prefer to
set it through some #+LATEX_HEADER as the templates often require their
own title setting directives.
So, my follow-up question is: How can I get orgmode to not fiddle with
the title in a LaTeX export?
Regards,
Andreas
