The question is: what is the syntax that should be used to REMOVE a converter that is defined in lyxrc.defaults? lyxrc.C outputs changed converters so: // New/modifed converters for (Converters::const_iterator cit = system_converters.begin(); cit != system_converters.end(); ++cit) if (!converters.getConverter(cit->from, cit->to)) os << "\\converter \"" << cit->from << "\" \"" << cit->to << "\" \"\" \"\"\n"; FormPreferences simply removes a converter from the list of local converters. It does not "none" it, so the removal of this converter is not saved. At least, that's how I read the code. Angus
