Thanks Russel and Sebastian.
I do have graphicx installed but I had two issues:
1. image that I included in org file did not use \includegraphics in
the tex file.
2. preamble of tex file did not include \usepackage{graphicx}.
So for 1, I am enclosing the image (the whole \includegraphics etc.)
in a BEGIN_LaTeX and END_LaTeX. And for 2, I am trying to define a
custom class using "org-export-latex-classes" that will include
graphicx and other packages that I use. I guess the setup will take
some work but then it should be one time setup and I hope not to edit
the tex files much after that and go from org to PDF in one fell
swoop. I do not enjoy editing tex files.
Another thing I noticed is that a table in org file appears fine in
produced but does not appear in the \listoftables unless wrapped in a
\begin{table}..\end{table}. Is there an automated/simple way to do
this?
Thanks again,
