Rich,
this depends strongly on your problem. But you should always
first trying to realize it with a tabular. It is a powerful
environment, but needs some time to understand.
Now that I've briefly looked at your modifications I see how much more
efficiently the file is written than what I had originally. In addition to
Appendix D of "Guide to LaTeX", what do you recommend I read to learn more
about doing complex documents with LaTeX? Or, is it more a matter of
doing it
more frequently?
there are some general facts:
- for the layout use _always_ package geometry, which is also
the default by LyX
- every layout, which depends on a grid, should be possible
with a tabular or array
learning by doing is the best way and doing it frequently
makes it easier.
