I recently upgraded my org-mode from 7.x to 8.2.7c (bundled with a Windows
Emacs package for ESS) and have been struggling with changed behaviours of
LaTeX exporter since.
Below is the list of those changes:
1. Double backslashes (for line break) embedded in a string for "#+AUTHOR:"
With version 7.x, the following line
#+AUTHOR: Joseph Kim\\Department of Electrical and Electronic
Engineering\\Example University
is exported to
\author{Joseph Kim\\Department of Electrical and Electronic
Engineering\\Example University}
With version 8.2.7c, however, the same line is exported to
\author{Joseph Kim$\backslash$\Department of Electrical and Electronic
Engineering$\backslash$\Example University}
which results in LaTeX compilation error.
2. Accessing the value of "#+KEYWORDS:" and change of cases in
"org-special-blocks"
For keywords section in IEEE papers, I used to have the following settings:
#+KEYWORDS: AAA, BBB, CCC
...
#+BEGIN_IEEEkeywords
{{{KEYWORDS}}}.
#+END_IEEEkeywords
which turns into
\begin{IEEEkeywords}
AAA, BBB, CCC.
\end{IEEEkeywords}
Version 8.2.7c, however, produces the following from the same settings:
\begin{ieeekeywords}
.
\end{ieeekeywords}
Because the keyword environment in IEEE LaTeX class is case-sensitive,
again it results in LaTeX compilation error.
Now I wonder whether I should go back to 7.x or not in spite of many
improvements in the new version.
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated in this regard.
Regards,
Joseph
