When I export to PDF via org-mode (C-c C-e d), any words with underscores end up being partially converted to subscript. How can I prevent this from happening? I found this article on the subject: Disabling Underscore subscript in Emacs Tex Mode However, I either wasn't able to figure out the correct elisp or it simply didn't work. Note, I don't want to change any global font options. I only want this fix to apply to tex/latex/org-mode. I also found this post, though it didn't work either: disable subscript superscript raise/lower? You can disable super/subscripting within an org file by

In history-books you often have timeline, where events and periods are marked on a line in the correct relative distance to each other. How is it possible to create something similar in LaTeX? Zoe Gagnon The tikz package seems to have what you want. \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{snakes} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[snake=zigzag, line before snake = 5mm, line after snake = 5mm] % draw horizontal line \draw (0,0) -- (2,0); \draw[snake] (2,0) -- (4,0); \draw (4,0) -- (5,0); \draw[snake] (5,0) -- (7,0); % draw vertical lines \foreach \x in {0,1,2,4,5,7} \draw (

I use matplotlib. I need to get xlabels like: [1/8,2/8,3/8,4/8..14/8]. I want to make it in a loop. Therefore, for better view I use TEX in Python. For rendering the fraction expression in the loop I use .format method. But it doesn't work properly. There is some conflict between using of {} in TEX and .format method. I tried to use double {} but it as well doesn't work. import matplotlib.pyplot as plt fig = plt.figure() ax = fig.add_subplot(111) xax = ax.xaxis # get x axis labels = ['0'] for i in range(0, 14): labels.append(r'$\frac{}{8}$'.format(i)) # when trying to insert i an error occurs
