So I just make a (say article) two column normal thing and it will take
care of all those things? Cool! :)
Can I make 3 columns in LyX?
Can I use minipages (so footnotes stick to their articles and so) and is
there a way to make them floats, so the engine is able to make the layout
more flexible?
Maybe a multicolumn newsletter is too wysiwyg if we think in the final
result, but I am sure great results can be obtained from a wysiwym, and
LyX's the best for that :)
Just one more question, I did a small try yesterday but i had some
problems, for when I changed font size from normal to small, all japanese
words with macrons gave compile errors. It seems the LaTeX code generated
is of the kind "{\small blah blah Aiki}{\small \=}{\small o}" which is
obviously wrong.
Oh! I already asked this but I lost the reply and, besides, it didn't
work... :( Is there a way i can 'macro' so a simple combination of
keystrokes (easier that M-c t \= M-c t) allows me to macron vowels? The
newsletter is for our Aikid\=o organization and has lots of japanese
words...
thanks for any help,
