Re: LaTeX and LyX at tomorrow night's GoLUG meeting

Oops, I just realized that I sent the LyX list the generic description. I didn't mean to insult anyone's intelligence by telling what TeX, LaTeX and LyX are, nor by the sentence "If you need to write documents, and want those documents to be typeset uniformly and well, you should attend this pr

LaTeX and LyX at tomorrow night's GoLUG meeting

Hi all, If any of you are in Central Florida, this might interest you... I'm giving a presentation on TeX, LaTeX and LyX at tomorrow night's GoLUG meeting. It's 7pm, 8/2/2007 at the Knowledge Shop at 1000 North Orlando Avenue (17-92) Suite C in Corporate Square in Winter Park. In other words,

Menu fonts

Hello Lyx users After installing 1.5.0 on Solaris, I get fonts in the LyX window as simple serif fonts, which are ugly. I can easily turn these in my usual screen fonts using Tools->Preferences. But the menu fonts are also ugly. How can I change them ? I did not find anything in the doc. TIA -

Re: Improving images for printing?

Hi Jeremy I suspect that your problem will be coming from the fact that screenshots are ~75-90 dpi, but that you are then printing them on a page at something like 300 dpi. Normally this means that the images are scaled up so that they have the right number of pixels on the page. This means adding

Table paste bug?

Dear LyX users, I suspect that this is yet another table cut-and-paste bug in 1.5x. This is LyX 1.5.0 on Mac OS X, MacTeX. Cut something formatted and in instant preview from a table cell. When the formatted text is pasted into another table cell, the formatting is removed, and the text appears o

I'm trying to advise a friend on installation of Windows LyX (advice at long distance!). From looking at the web site and the wiki, I'm not sure what you are talking about in reference to these two installers. Which is which? And which is likely to cause my fried less grief? This was exactly why
