what is this: \usepackage[latin9]{inputenc} and why does TexLive hate it?

In Fedora 8 Linux, I'm using the TexLive version of latex that is now available fore testing. I can ask there about this trouble, but I'm pretty sure they will send me back here to ask "why does LyX do that?". The problem: I get weird output. In a simple document created from the default everyt

Re: TeXLive rpm packages available to Fedora 8 users

Just wanted to let you know the TeXLive works great on my Fedora 8 system. I notice no diamage compared to tetex. In fact, if TeXLive would just use the same configuration commands (no more "texhash") I expect most people would never notice the difference. Do my eyes deceive me? With LyX 1.5.2

Re: Exporting

I just tried export to OpenDocument format with the new LyX and have some advice that may help. Run LyX from a terminal window. That way, you can watch the error messages. emitted by the programs that do the translation. For me, the first export to ODT frailed--tex4ht crashed because it could no

Need help with syntax while creating layout file for examdesign

I'm trying to make a lyx layout file to help with making multiple choice exams with the examdesign LaTeX class. This class has many great features, including automatic randomization of questions to create separate forms as well as automatic key generation for grading. The question environment is

lyx layout file for multiple choice exam: anybody have examdesign.layout working?

examdesign appears to be the LaTeX class that most closely fits my needs for writing tests. There was some conversation here in 2000 about an effort to create a layout file for that package, but I can't find any evidence of a result. Anybody have a working layout file? I don't really need all o

noweb book child documents: don't get processed through the noweb handler

Hello, everybody. If I have a book chapter in book-noweb document class, I can view it and the R/Noweb linkage is fine--the code chunks run through R and the documents are displayed. If I take the same book chapter, and put it in as a child document inside the whole book the Noweb processing is

Re: Inserting a tab indented outline into a lyx document

Seems easier to just use the itemize environment with customized bullet symbols. if you use the Document/Settings/Bullets options, you can eliminate the symbols and then the output looks exactly the way you want. It would drive me nuts to keep turning the stevelist special environment on and off

Re: Trouble with eps inclusions in lyx-1.4.1

Well, this seems like a serious problem, not one where we should say "there's nothing to do". I'd suggest that LyX SHOULD NOT offer to export documents to pdf when they have eps files in them, or at least users need a VERY BIG warning because a lot of users will get in trouble unless they proof r

Trouble with eps inclusions in lyx-1.4.1

I just ran into a really weird lyx problem on Fedora Core 5 and tetex-3.0-19. It is so interesting I want to share and ask for help: http://pj.freefaculty.org/latex/weirdRotations-lyx.tar.gz That tarball has a lyx file and 3 eps files that I generated with R. Two of the eps files are in landsca
