Yes. If it is possible, I want to have an equivalent PDF and an
equivalent TeX as well.

It has to be something similar. Otherwise the sigproc-sp.tex gets
overwritten by the exporter.

Good idea. I'll change it.

I was hoping that it is possible to encapsulate everything in the
Org-mode file instead. «#+name: setup» looked very promising to me
for that purpose ... (but so far I could not achieve any impact with
it)

Great!
