Thanks a lot! Again: Using Help/Embedded Objects I get an error box Lyx: The document class is not available elaborating that scrbook.layout is not available. I managed to produce a simple example, though, and found with document/settings that lots of classes are not available, among them KOMA contrary to what the user guide states. I reset the document class to book and set several other options like language. This way, I managed to produce a PDF file. Next, I experienced two more problems, 1) I get type 3 fonts in my PDF document, which means that they are bitmaps giving an ugly expression. They should be type 1 fonts. 2) I can't manage to place a picture on a page and let the text float around the picture. This is extremely easy with Word, but doesn't seem to be a problem in scientific publications, so I doubted if there is a solution. In http://latex.tugraz.at/fortgeschrittene.php#grafiken I found \usepackage{floatflt} \begin{floatingfigure}[r]{0.4\textwidth} \centering \includegraphics[width=0.35\textwidth]{./bild.eps} \caption{Das ist mein Bild} \label{fig:mein-bild} \end{floatingfigure} or \usepackage{picins} ... \piccaption{Graz bei Nacht\label{graz-bei-nacht}} \parpic[r]{\includegraphics[width=0.4\textwidth]{./graznacht.eps}} I guess there is no other way than hand coding, right?
