Help: Avant Garde as the default font
Hi list:
To change the document font I have in the preamble (from
www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/lyx/fonts/fonts.phtml):
\renewcommand\familydefault{\sfdefault}
With this command I get Helvetica as the default font (except for the
equations). Now I want to use avant garde. I have tried to put in the
preamble:
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\avant}
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{\avant}
but I get a lot of errors. How can i manage that the font text is Avant Garde?
Thanks for help.
Regards.
Pep Roca

Re: upgrading 1.2.1 rpm to 1.2.3

Which compiler do you recommend for compiling LyX. Does it have anything to do with libXpm. I didn't need it when I installed the rpm's, but I need it for the compilation. I just unpacked the package, there was nothing to install. Perhaps that has something to do with it, but it doesn't seem like it, since it only complaints about my C++ compiler. Any idea?

Does anyone know whether one can overlay text to a
relative position say, 50% of the width and 30 % of the
height of the included graphics?
I imagined that I could add an \rput line to Herbert's
tip on overlaying text over graphics, something like
\rput(0.5*\wd\Imagebox,0.3*\wd\Imagebox){some text I wanna overlay}
But this doesn't work nor do all the possible bracket (,{ and [ combinations
I thought might help! I tried putting the multiplication factor on the end
of the \wd\Imagebox and even addition and subtraction seem not to work.
It seems to want plain coords i.e. (3,4), without an algebraic expression
like (a+1,b*2) where a and b could be variables or numbers.
Am I headed in the right direction, or is this a not achievable?
Thanks in advance.
Rob

If
\rput[r](\wd\Imagebox,0){Lower Right}
is accepted, your statement can't be true.
Neither '*' nor '+' are valid "operators" to do math in TeX.
Have you tried
\rput[r](0.5\wd\Imagebox,0){Lower Right}
?

Stand-alone lyx binary
At work I do not have root access and don't have xforms or the right glib version installed it seems (the computer is running 2.2.17 and some old slackware distro it seems). Is there a stand-alone (non-rpm) lyx binary I could download to run at work? Any help is very much appreciated. Cheers, Raphael
Tipps & Tricks on www.lyx.org: C-->C++ - Symbol
Hello,
I copy pasted the source into my latex file:
\DeclareRobustCommand{\Cpp}
{\valign{\vfil\hbox{##}\vfil\cr
\textsf{C\kern-.1em}\cr
$\hbox{\fontsize{\ssf@size}{0}\textbf{+\kern-0.05em+}}$\cr}%
}
But I get the following error message when compiling my source:
! Undefined control sequence. \ssf @sizel.7 \Cpp
I trie to figure out where the problem is but was not able to! Could you
please help me to get this workin' ?
Here is a basic latex file which does not compile on my system:
\documentclass{article}
\DeclareRobustCommand{\Cpp}{\valign{\vfil\hbox{##}\vfil\cr%\textsf{C\kern-.1em}\cr%$\hbox{\fontsize{\ssf@size}{0}\textbf{+\kern-0.05em+}}$\cr}%}
\begin{document}
Test of the \Cpp command.
\end{document}
Thank you for your help,
Konstantinos Kampouridis.

Shouldn't macro names containing @ be used only with
\makeatletter
...
\makeatother

Help: Avant Garde as the default font
Try this:
In Layout -> Document -> Font choose Avant. Then put
\renewcommand\familydefault{sfdefault}
in preamble.

Your you should find your xforms library at PATH/libforms.so, where PATH is probably /usr/lib but may be /usr/local/lib. If that doesn't find it, type at the command line $ find / -name "libforms.so*" You may need to run this as root. Similarly, forms.h should be found in one of /usr/include, /usr/include/X11, /usr/local/include or /usr/local/X11/include. I would recommend (strongly) however, that you consider throwing out xforms 0.89.1 and replacing it with the newly released xforms 1.0; it fixes many, many bugs. If you are bent on compiling everything, get it from ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/xforms-1.0-release.src.rpm If you don't care about compiling xforms but still want to compile LyX, then you'll want ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/libforms-devel-1.0-release.i386.rpm Finally, if you just want a working LyX, get ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/libforms-1.0-release.i386.rpm and the appropriate LyX rpm from ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.2.3/ HTH, -- Angus
Extra vertical spaces added between parapgraph in two sided book
Hi, I am writing my thesis, and it seems that sometimes there are some additionnal vertical spaces added between my paragraph when I format my document in two sided book, instead of one side book. For example, I have attached the following files : test.lyx : is the example test file i made test1side.ps : is the corresponding one side document test2sides.ps : is the corresponding two sided document. When comparing test2sides.ps to test1side.ps you can see additionnal vertical spacing everywhere between Chapter and sections and paragraphs. I have noticed that the vertical spaces are not always added, it depends of the length of paragraph. The test.lyx file was created to reproduce the problem. Is this a bug ? How to avoid this disgraceful formating ? Thanks for your help. PS: i am using lyx 1.1.6 fix4 _ Envie de discuter en "live" avec vos amis ?

Where have you defined macro \avant? The value of \*default
should be NFSS name of the font family. Read fntguide (available
in $TEXMF/latex/base/ directory as DVI) and you will understand,
that the proper value of \rmdefault (or \sfdefault -- depends on
what you want) should be pag.

lyx to html
What's the best way to convert a lyx document to html. I have tried exporting to latex and then using latex2html but the result was a mess. I have a document using foiltex as well and I tried lyx->latex->latex2html with foilhtml and the results were even worse. The only foilhtml file I could find was dated 1998 as well which made me slightly suspicious. Any help is very much appreciated. Raphael
