Paul,

Both textcompsym.sty and textcompfix.sty come from the Georgia Tech thesis
collection. The latter makes no difference in the error message; the former
generates a whole bunch of different LaTeX errors. Sigh.

Thanks,

Rich


After reading the preambles, I would expect vice versa. The textcompsym package fakes a number of missing symbols but apparently not textservicemark (so I would expect the original error to repeat); the textcompfix package supposedly switches the font to Computer Modern long enough to print the service mark, then back to the previous font, so that should handle textservicemark (don't know about creating any new errors).

Looks like the "error" message that you got in the first place was actually just a warning that textcomp was substituting another font (cmr, I think) in order to print the service mark. Try exporting your original doc to a LaTeX file and run latex (or pdflatex) against it. I did that on a small test doc, got your error message, just hit enter to run through it, and the latex run finished and gave me what looks like a correct DVI file. Methinks perhaps LyX just can't tell the difference between a warning and a fatal error. (In fairness, latex does ask for input at that point, so maybe it's latex that doesn't distinguish warnings from errors.)

If that's too aggravating (and assuming you're ok with the service mark being in Computer Modern), you might hack the textcomp.sty package and delete the warning part from the definition of [EMAIL PROTECTED] (so that it just does the \bgroup ... \egroup stuff).
