Hello again, I've just solved my own problem (wouldn't you know, as soon as I sent the email :-). I needed to set the environment variable (using XP) BSTINPUTs to point to the path where the .bst files are, using the DOS format for the path (not the weird cygwin path I had been using). Noel.

Getting Bibtex to work with LyX (on XP)

Hello, I recently installed LyX using Cygwin on Windows XP. I was very impressed to see how well it worked. My only problem is that the Bibtex citations and bibliography don't work. I can insert the citation in the text in the normal way, i.e. LyX can *find* the .bib file no problem. The .dvi tho

Hi all, I've been trying to export some documents to PDF with partial success. The instructions I used are in section 3.3.6 of the Extended Features manual. The first thing I did was to create ~/.dvipsrc and add the following lines: p+ psfonts.cmz p+ psfonts.amz Then I tried changing the doc
