Hello,
You are absolutely right that I should using the latex8 document class for
my conference paper.

After reading throught the Help->Customization and the Help->Extended
manual, I make the following changes:
1. cp /usr/share/lyx/layouts/latex8.layout
~/.lyx/layouts/latex8.layout.layout
2. edit latex8.layout and change the line to read
      \DeclareLaTeXClass[article, latex8.sty, times.sty]{article (Latex8}
3. Preamble
      \usepackage{Latex8}
Results: Still can't see "article(latex8)" as a document class option in the
Layout --> Document popup. :-(

I've download latex8.sty from Internet. Where should I put this style?

Helps are appreciated.

Have a nice day!

Hisyam
