Hi all, I have a simple question which I could not find an answer to online to which I was hoping an experienced LyX user may know the solution.
When I click on "File > Export > PDF (pdflatex)" the .pdf file gets generated in the same folder as the .lyx file. Would it be possible to have the .pdf file generated in a sub-directory of this folder--say, a folder named "./pdf" or "./export"? (I like saving my figures in a sub-directory and would similarly like the pdfs to automatically be saved in a subfolder so that only .lyx files are in the main directory for the project. Related to the above, when I click on "View > PDF (pdflatex)" the .pdf file gets generated in a temporary folder. Would if be possible to have these generated in a sub-directory of the folder where the .lyx file resides--say, a folder named "./draft"? Would it be possible to add a date prefix to the filename too? This would be so that I could save pdf drafts of the file. How would I change the settings for these? (NB. I am a LyX 1.6.3 user on Windows XP). Thanks! Ken
