Dear list, I am a bit confused about what I have to use the new Beamer exporter. I have customized the org-export-backends variable to include the Beamer exporter, and now it shows as an option when I do C-c C-e. I have also created a toy org file:
----start org file------------------ #+TITLE: Example Presentation #+AUTHOR: Julian Burgos * This is a structural section ** Frame 1 This is frame 1 ** Frame 2 This is frame 2 ----end org file------------------ If I try to use any of the Beamer export commands, I get an "Wrong type argument: stringnp, nil" error. If I check the *Messages* buffer, these are the messages generated after trying to export: Debug (ox-odt): Searching for OpenDocument styles files... Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/styles/... [2 times] Debug (ox-odt): Trying /home/julian/.emacs.d/etc/styles/... Debug (ox-odt): Trying /home/julian/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20130514/etc/styles/... Debug (ox-odt): Using styles under /home/julian/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20130514/etc/styles/ Debug (ox-odt): Searching for OpenDocument schema files... Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/schema/... [2 times] Debug (ox-odt): No OpenDocument schema files installed org-beamer--normalize-argument: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil On the other hand, if I add #+LaTeX_CLASS: beamer to the org file and use the "non-beamer" latex export commands, I get the presentation in beamer with no problems, the old fashion way. What I am doing wrong?
