If we want good PDF output from org-mode, the best way is almost certainly a good LaTeX exporter. Producing one would be time-consuming, but probably not all that hard, since it could start with a straightforward port of the HTML exporter. PDF export could then just run the LaTeX exporter and pdflatex (or whatever other path to pdf you prefer). This will require an additional install on Windows (e.g. MiKTeX), but that honestly shouldn't be a problem for anyone running Emacs. I would like to have this feature, and I think I could probably implement it myself, but unfortunately I know that I don't have time to. -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Jason F.
