Hello, I am just starting to work with with Lyx and therefore I am obviously no expert. Atm I am having huge problems with a simple step right at the beginning. After I create a new file (no template) and enter a small text I cannot preview it. I always get the message "No pdf viewer is installed. Please install a pdf viewer such as adobe reader." I have a pdf viewer installed (Adove and Sumatra) I checked tools > preferences > files > converter (I am using the german version so these are my translation) and checked for a relation but there are quite a lot of possibilities and I am not sure what exactly I should look for. lyx --> xxx or latex --> xxx? There is no option lyx --> pdf only converters to older versions of lyx. There are converters like LaTeX (pdflatex) --> PDF (pdflatex). If I understood the tutorial properly it needs to be lyx to pdf right? Anybody have an idea how to fix this or manualy install such a converter? I am using Windows 8
