Re: [Orgmode] publishing to PDF

[Thomas S. Dye]

Hi Erwin,

Does Emacs know the path to your LaTeX executables?

I have these lines in .emacs (don't know why I have both and not sure  
now if one or both are needed):

    (setenv "PATH" (concat (getenv "PATH") ":/usr/texbin"))
    (setq exec-path (append exec-path '("/usr/texbin")))

hth,
Tom
