Hi Richard, I changed from tetex to texlive but I'm not seeing any change in the document classes I see in lyx.
>From tex info I can see the following classes I'm looking for: acmconf.cls acmtrans2e.cls apa.cls The document classes I can choose from document settings are: Article (APA) But no ACM. I don't see a good correlation between the list of "document class" and the text info list of classes. Any further suggestions? Thanks, B.
