document templates

Hi: Checked the documentation, quickly, the tips & tricks quickly, but didn't come across samples that displayed the templates. For example, the IEEEtran.lyx template just presents a single line, then, by trial and error, I find that first entry is title. Is there a pointer to sample docum

jpeg2ps is the generally recommended tool. It actually produces eps files. Using ImageMagick to produce a level 2 eps file seems to give similar results. Rod On Sun, 16 Dec 2001, Rich Shepard wrote: > After my last faux pas (suggesting the use of ImageMagick to translate > from ps to eps,

Using figures in a LyX article

After my last faux pas (suggesting the use of ImageMagick to translate from ps to eps, rather than ps2eps), I'll ask for suggestions from you more experienced folks. In the article I've migrated from WordPerfect (linux) to LyX, I have three images (in color) as .jpg files. I know I have to re

Bibliographies with DocBook

I have just started learning about the use of DocBook with LyX (1.1.6fix3 and possibly 1.2 from CVS if I need newer features). One thing I immediately noticed when composing a DocBook article was the lack of a bibliography style in the usual place. I really like the way LyX handles reference

Centering math equations

I'm fairly new to LyX and I'm comfortable with the basic text features. However, now I'm converting a paper I presented last year at a meeting into LyX and I'm stuck on the few equations. I know how to enter math mode, but I don't know how to have the equation centered on the line. I've read
