The lshort layout

2002-02-03 Thread J . S .
Dear Sirs, Would anyone mind explaining how I can get the same beautiful and professional layout as put in the lshort LaTeX tutorial into my work in LyX? I have a feeling the .sty files that came with it might be of some help. I am, however, not sure, which is why I've come to you for advice. Pl

My problem with getting some jpg images in my report exported to pdf is the image size. Can someone tell me how a 300x512 sized image can appear as 1.000x1.707 inches in both GIMP and LyX? I don't get it, the size in inches can't be, and in fact is _not_ the real 300x512 size. All this is just so

Is LyX based on LaTeX or teTeX?

2002-01-15 Thread J . S .
If LyX is based on LaTeX, as the documentation says, how come the LyX FreeBSD port installed teTeX as a dependancy?

1. For my chapters I selected `Chapter*' so that the word "Chapter" doesn't enter my report. Is it because of the `Chapter*' and not `Chapter' that the TOC won't even appear? 2. And what about the TOC's "Contents" and the Bibliography's "References"? My report is not in English!, is there any way

Hi. I'm in a bit of a hurry so I have to be quick. Can anyone _please_ convert this file to PDF without the images taking up a whole page, has extremely bad quality or the like, but instead get it as normal as possible and then let me know in time for my history class? I think it starts in 4 hou

That's odd, since I've resized and resaved almost every image. Entering 100% as width and height makes the JPG image appear slight bigger on PDF, though in LyX it takes up so much space that it destroys for the rest of my layout, like it does with no value. (the image appears on a separate page e

I forgot to say that when the images are in the document as EPS, the size is how I intended it to be.

Dear sirs, First I'd like to apollogize for just now sending such a big file into the mailinglist. I know I should have given you an address you could have viewed it from, though I didn't have time at that moment to make it available. ## [1] Thanks to everyone who responded to my qu

LyX in FreeBSD

2002-01-12 Thread J . S .
Has anyone experienced the following problems with LyX in FreeBSD? The people behind LyX mailinglist apparently aren't interested in backing us newbies up. 1. Problem exporting to most of the available formats when .EPS imagages are present. 2. Difficulty in getting LyX to recognize your X fonts

This is exactly what it says: LaTeX Error: Unknown graphics extension: .eps. ...ring \includegraphics{pictures/delphi.eps} \par} Try typing to proceed. If that doesn't work, type X to quit. --What is wrong? Do you know where in the documenta

Two simple questions

2002-01-11 Thread J . S .
Hello. Why do these two problems always occur to LyX newcomers? 1. ``LaTeX Error: Unknown graphics extension: .eps.'' 2. I have a few Type1 fonts that doesn't appear in `Character Style' -> `Family'. How can I use them? Shouldn't LyX use the fonts loaded in X? Thanks.

Where can I find out how I can make LyX recognize the Type1 fonts on my system? Is it mandatory to add the dirs in XF86Config first? Thanks.

KLyX -- am I missing something?

I'm just curious; are there any advantages and/or disadvantages (for a beginner) by using KLyX instead of LyX? Thanks.
