This is the only lyx glitch I have so far found, everything else looks fine and I have other forms library based apps which don't seem to be showing any symptoms at this stage - bear in mind the whole installation in less than two weeks old, so there could be problems lurking that I have not tripped over yet.

slow typing in lyx
Dear all: I was having problems with back-delete being so slow, this has been fixed thanks to help and a patch -- thankyou. But now I see part of the problem persists. 1.1.5fix1 seems very slow when I type. I do not notice the effects when I type a paragraph from scratch. However, when I go back to insert some further words of wisdom, many of the letters don't appear as lyx/my computer is busy doing something else (presumably redrawing the screen and working out what text needs to flow onto the next line and..etc). This isn't just annoying -- it is unproductive and pretty unbearable to live with. It was fine in 1.0.4. Can something be done to improve things (and/or the efficiency of the code (if this is the root of the problem)? Thanks Tony -- Airplanes.

Inserting Post Script Figures ino Lyx Docs
It appears lyx will only accept Post Script Figs. So this means I would have to convert my non PS file to PS. The way to do this would be to use a PS Printer and generate a PS file from the original file via something like Power Point. The problem I am having is that the PS file generated and inserted into the fig does not appear when I do a post script view. I guess this is because the PS is level 3 and maybe lyx will only accept level 1. Trouble is all the printer drivers supplied by Windows 98 are all level 3. So what do you recommend I do? The basic problem is how does lyx deal with non PS files in Figs. I'd be grateful for you help and advice. Yours Mike Reeks -- MW Reeks, Interface Analysis Centre (URC) [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'd recommend that you install a Postscript driver and use that. You can get it from Adobe. http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/pdrvwin.htm Set that driver up to print to the FILE: port (rather than choosing Print to file). Now each time you need an ps/eps file of a fig you just choose this printer rather than your ordinary printer. I think also you can choose the driver to output EPS if you want to.

LyX *should* accept other formats than EPS (no PS which may cover more than one page and thus includes commands forbidden in EPS) using pdflatex (recognized formats are PDF, JPG, PNG and possibly GIF): this is clearly oriented towards bitmap figure inclusion (and you can't include anymore eps files, you have to convert them to one of the legal formats). As far as EPS is concerned, and up to my experience, it's not a problem of PS level, but a problem of quality of the drivers. Have a look at the ps produced, you should - get rid of the exotic data before the %!PS- and after the %%EOF - convert to EPS (GStools or ghostcript) - get rid of the remaining constructs forbidden in EPS (showpage and setpagedevice are common candidates). The inclusion of the cleaned EPS should work, you may still have to fiddle with the BoundingBox. Note that drivers claiming to produce EPS may still give you files with exotic characters and forbidden EPS commands... Good luck -- Jean-Pierre

AMS not translated (again)
I posted this question some months ago... but didn't find any working solution (then I forgot everything). Now I MUST solve it: I use AMS book in italian but some words are not translated, i.e.:theorem, proof etc.. How can I do? Can I translate on my own ? Herberto Voss suggested to add some line to /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/babel/italian.ldf There you can find: ... \def\seename{vedi}% \def\alsoname{vedi anche}% \def\proofname{Dimostrazione}% ... I thought to add : \def\theoremname{Teorema}% \def\corollaryname{Corollario}% ecc.. (I think that "theoremname" and "corollaryname" are correct word). THIS DOESN'T WORK !!! How can I do? I remember that Jean-Marc Lasgouttes suggested to modify layout file... but, which file? How to modify it? Thanks a lot. Emanuele

As the URL inset offers the two fields, it is easy to write a small perl script to filter the lyx file in view of the html translation. Perhaps the type HTML button (which does not make any difference in tha layout as far I checked) could be used to autmatically insert the required \usepackage{html} u=in the preamble and to replace the \url command by \htmladdnormalllink ? A last improvement would be to insert a second button to use \htmladdnormallinkfoot which puts the URL as a footnote referred to by the anchor, which is a good layout when there are few URLs in a page. It may seem boring to insert such latex2html specific syntax in LyX, so a postfiltering solution may be better, but something is needed anyway. -- Jean-Pierre

Hi, even better result you get by using PDFLaTeX. The only change necessary is to use pdftex is to use pdftex as a driver (i.e., instead of ps2pdf), export LaTeX instead of PostScript and use (maybe, more than once and bibtex) pdflatex instead of regular latex. PDFLaTeX should be part of all regular TeX distributions (certainly, it is in tetex for Linux as well as in miktex for Win32) I personally use slightly more complicated construct, see below: % for use with PDFLaTeX \newif \ifpdf \ifx \pdfoutput \undefined \pdffalse \else \pdftrue \fi \ifpdf \pdfinfo { /Author (your name and e-mail address) /Title (official title -- i.e., title element) /Subject (one line description of the document) } \pdfcatalog { /PageMode (/UseNone) % /OpenAction (fitbh) } \usepackage[pdftex]{hyperref} \else \usepackage[ps2pdf]{hyperref} \fi and whenever I want something which should be only in PDF, I use \ifpdf .

Title, abstract
I'm just starting to use LyX, for the second time. Last time was a few years back. I'm doing a report, and find that the article class is the closest to what I need to do. The problem is that the title environment does not seem to produce a separate page, at least when viewed in ghostview or xdvi. What is the problem here? Does this class not generate a separate page for the title? Adding a latex \pagebreak command causes the title page to be numbered. :( Another problem is that the paper must have an Executive Summary, rather than an Abstract. These two entities are similar, except that an Executive Summary is headed as such, rather than with the heading Abstract. Is there an easy way to change the heading from within LyX, without having to resort to editing the latex output? -- William Burrow -- New Brunswick, Canada
