I think you'd need to add a "driver" param to outputparams.[Ch], which is set in Converters::convert. In buffer.C, writeLaTeXSource, this param is queried and then passed to params().writeLaTeX (which would need an additonal param string const & driver). But as I wrote in my last mail, I'm not sure anymore it's worth the effort. > >> I tested this with with various > >> larger documents. dvipdfm is not under development since 5 years now and > >> therefore not recommended to use. > > > > But there's dvipdfmx.

So, for instance, change tracking is visible in LyX. Jürgen
