Unfortunately I can confirm Uwe's report for release 9:
PDF reports : unrecoverable error : typecheck in .putdeviceprops
with a corresponding Adobe report : "There was an error opening this document: This file cannot be found."

PDF(dvipdfm); PDF(pdflatex); Postscript all display as expected straight off .


The problem is all within Acrobat. Actually, if Gsview is used as viewer for PDF files everything works fines.

I have found that the same problem appears if from the command line I try to execute "acrobat file.pdf". However, if I just write "file.pdf" the file is opened (it is the same as clicking twice on it from the explorer window). The problem will be solved if in Preferneces, for the PDF viewer, we write:

<full_path_to_file>\$$i

where <full_path_to_file> is the temporary folder where the pdf file is, e.g. C:\tools\latex\lyx136\temp\lyx_tmpdir9052a12068\lyx_tmpbuf1

So, my question is now:
How can we get that path? I guess it must be stored in some variable.



Apart from that, for me version 9 works completely ok, including views, exports, spell-checking... Except for the problem with the keyboard and the accents, which did not exist in version 1.3.5

Ah, one thing, the doc files are missing!
