org-mode export to PDF source code block ill-formatted

I'm having this problem: My org file with a source code block, when exporting to PDF the source is not properly exported. Here is the content of the file:

#+TITLE: A Document with Emacs-Lisp Source Code

#+NAME:map_example
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :exports code
(setq org-latex-pdf-process '("latexmk  -f -pdf %f"))
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS: map_example
| latexmk  -f -pdf %f |

Here is the the generated .tex file:

I tried to export the same file to HTML, it produces the expected HTML rendering

My emacs/org setup used to work with PDF export of source code.

How can I investigate and fix the problem?

Solution

  • I have tried your code and if you add "-shell-escape" to your latex command should solve the problem.

    #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :exports code
(setq org-latex-pdf-process '("latexmk -shell-escape -f -pdf %f"))
#+END_SRC
