rance and formatting. I don't know how valid it was, but since I
was reluctant to make the move from DOS to Windows, I liked what it
said. Today, I find that, when I'm using LibreOffice, I fiddle much more
with formatting while I type than I do when using LyX. It takes a lot of
discipline

would be working somewhat blindly until they compiled their documents.
In short, I have serious questions about the validity of this test.

While LuaTex still gave me more hyphenated line endings, it gave me fewer

Okay, now back to my "real" work.

I pair it with Calibri, a Windows system font. My
needs are very simple and I don't need a specific math font. I find that
Calibri is pleasant when projected on a screen and it has a nice Italic
for a sans-serif font. Because it is a Windows font, I compile my
presentations with XeLaTeX.

Interesting. It does make one wonder why this has to be the case, since LyX is
seemingly able to \begin and \end any other environment without an explicit
\end marker.

Hi, Virgil,
I enjoyed your booklet about LyX. Would you also share the lyx file with
the community? That would be the best way of learning for a beginner.
Does anyone know if there is any way to encrypt .lyx files and protect them
with a password?
thanks

installing Miktex, I chose the option to install the complete distribution and
it seems to have more fonts than are recognized by LyX.

Is there a way of telling Lyx to load graphicx with the correct option,
