Hi,i'm using the slides style in lyx 1.2.3 and would like them to come out in landscape. when i select Layout->Document->Paper-> Landscape it cuts off most of the slide and prints it upside down. is there a better way todo this? thanks, alex.
When you say it cuts off most of the slide do you mean it cuts off roughly the right-most third? If so this is because of the "-t a4" option that lyx sticks in when called dvips. Someone has claimed that gs versions from 6.53 onwards don't have this problem but I am unable to test this. (I am running redhat 7.3 and it appears to be almost impossible to upgrade ghostscript on it.) I simply have to export as latex and run dvips manually at the moment :(
The upside down problem is caused by lyx sticking "-swap" in the options for gv. This can be fixed in edit->preferences->file formats->postscript->viewer where it should say "gv -swap" at the moment. Just change that to "gv".
Cheers,
Raphael
P.S. I am using lyx 1.3.2 but seem to have had the same problems.
