I'm new to LyX and I encounter some problems. I'm using a windows port of LyX Version 1.3.2 of Tue, May 6 2003 by Ruurd Reitsma. I have created a new document, and I have selected the French language for the document layout. Then I wrote some text and I inserted an EPS image. When I try to view my document as DVI I get the following errors:
Error converting to loadable format
There were errors during the LaTeX run. 4 errors detected You should try to fix them.
Error 1
Missing $ inserted. ...yx_tmpbuf8/_devustn_mdl_codfscid_doc_menu}
I've inserted something that you may have forgotten. (See the <inserted text> above.) With luck, this will get me unwedged. But if you really didn't forget anything, try typing `2' now; then my insertion and my current dilemma will both disappear.
Error 2
Missing \endcsname inserted. ...yx_tmpbuf8/_devustn_mdl_codfscid_doc_menu}
The control sequence marked <to be read again> should not appear between \csname and \endcsname.
Error 3
LaTeX Error: Cannot determine size of graphic in E\penalty [EMAIL PROTECTED] :/win32app/ly
...yx_tmpbuf8/_devustn_mdl_codfscid_doc_menu}
Try typing <return> to proceed. If that doesn't work, type X <return> to quit.
Error 4
Missing $ inserted. ...yx_tmpbuf8/_devustn_mdl_codfscid_doc_menu}
I've inserted a begin-math/end-math symbol since I think you left one out. Proceed, with fingers crossed.
After reverting the document language to English, I can view it as DVI.
What could be wrong with the French language ?
Any help is welcomed. Thanks in advance.
