Thanks! > Really nice overview of side by side "translations" between Org and LaTex. Yes, I wanted to show the "problem" (horrible LaTeX syntax) and the "solution" (just write what you meant, with almost no extra syntax in Org). That made quite a shock to the attendants, even if they're used to the LaTeX side: they were astonished that the Org syntax was so close to the "how it's displayed" in the PDF -- mainly for the lists, but also for the tables. > Out of curiosity, why didn't the exponent and subscript examples get > rendered/converted on slide 22? That's something I still haven't understood... The only one, and you spotted it! I tried all variations of ^:nil, ^:t and ^:{} but none translated the super/sub-scripts correctly. A mystery that stays to be discovered... Best regards, Fabrice -- Fabrice Niessen Leuven, Belgium
