Hi all, I'm new to Lyx, and and some questions
regarding how the layout looks after conversion to
PDF.
The way your document looks like depends on the latex class that you use to format it. Such class is (indirectly) chosen when you
select the LyX layout for your document. Some layouts come by default with no page numbering, for example. You can choose the layout
you want via Document->Settings->Document class
I realize that a page number is added to the PDF file.
How do I remove that?
There are several ways (look here:
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=nopageno)
If you want absolutely no page numbering and no headers, you may install the nopageno.sty latex package (using MikTex) and use it in
your document by adding in the preamble (Document->Settings->Latex Preamble) the following line:
\usepackage{nopageno}
Alternatively, you can add these two lines to the preamble:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@empty
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Is there a way to reduce the margins in the PDF file?
I'm forced to write some of my expressions on the
second line because the left and right margins are too
narrow.
Document->Settings->Page Margins
Lastly, is there a way to increase the font size of
the text/symbols in the PDF file?
To change the font size all over the document, you may try to specify the font size (e.g. 12pt)you want in Document->Settings->Document
class->Options
To change the size of a piece of text, select it and choose the size via
Edit->Text Style->Customized
Cheers,
Nicolás
Thank you!
