Re: [O] resize table in latex
Thanks. This idea works, based on which I used the following
in the end.
#+NAME: tbl:lab
#+ATTR_LATEX: :caption \caption[short]{\label{tbl:lab} long.}
\scriptsize{\resizebox{\textwidth}{!} \centering
It does’t look very org like but is good that it works.
Thanks,
Zhihao

Why is that? Is it because table is a float?
You could try repurposing the :caption attribute. See:
(info "(org) LaTeX specific attributes")
Hope this helps,

Re: [O] resize table in latex
Thanks very much for your reply. The proposed method
in this reply won’t work. It needs to be in the following
structure where this line
“\scriptsize{\resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{“
is after “\begin{table}[htb]” and immediately before
“\begin{tabular}{rr}”.
I don’t know how to achieve that in the org syntax.
\begin{table}[htb]
\caption[caption]{\label{tablelabel} caption}
\centering
\scriptsize{\resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
\begin{tabular}{rr}
1 & 4 \\
\end{tabular}
}}
\end{table}
Thanks,

I don't follow. Why do you say you lose the facility? The following:
#+LaTeX: \scriptsize{\resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
#+CAPTION: table caption
#+NAME: table:label
| . | . |
| . | . |
#+LaTeX: }}
exports as:
\scriptsize{\resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
\begin{table}[htb]
\caption{\label{tab:orgtable1}
table caption}
\centering
\begin{tabular}{ll}
. & .\\
. & .\\
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
}}
Isn't that exactly what you want?

I'm not sure whether it is related, but I have had problems with using a
colon in names of objects. Using, say, 'table;label' instead of
'table:label' might help.

[O] resize table in latex
Hi there,
I am trying to find a way to automatically resize tables
in the latex output.
When doing slides in beamer, I use this to resize tables
to fit in a frame
#+LaTeX: \scriptsize{\resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
| . | . |
#+LaTeX: }}
While when writing reports, I use the following instead
as I need to cross reference it by the name
#+CAPTION: table caption
#+NAME: table:label
| . | . |
then I loose the resize facility. How could I combine
the two? I tried to fiddle with
#+ATTR_LATEX but didn’t mange to make it work.
Thanks very much!
Zhihao
