When comparing PDFs generated from LyX 2.1.4 with those posted on the wiki I noticed some weird differences. Looking for an explanation I came to the following reproducible peculiarity:
now with LyX 2.2rc1, while switching UI-locales: UI: English, en-UserGuide.lyx; generated PDF reads: Normal This is the “Normal” font size. It’s also the default size. (key bindings Control-S N, Control-S 5) Larger This is the “Larger” font size. (key bindings Control-S Shift-L, Contro UI: German, en-UserGuide.lyx; generated PDF reads: Normal This is the “Normal” font size. It’s also the default size. (key bindings Kontroll-S N, Kontroll-S 5) Larger This is the “Larger” font size. (key bindings Kontroll-S Shift-L, Kontr UI: English, de-UserGuide.lyx; generated PDF reads: Normal Dies ist die „normale” Schriftgröße. Dies ist auch die Standard- größe (Tastenkürzel: Alt+S N oder Alt+S 5) UI: German, de-UserGuide.lyx; generated PDF reads: Normal Dies ist die „normale” Schriftgröße. Dies ist auch die Standard- größe (Tastenkürzel: Alt+S N oder Alt+S 5) As you can see in the above example, German UserGuide yields the same characters/words and also better line-breaking regardless of UI-choice. Further, the English UserGuide produces differing output, dependent on UI-Choice. Therefore en-UserGuide violates the margins in different ways. The “Larger” example shows where the line not only runs out of the margin but off the page completely. (My viewer didn’t let me copy more than what is shown above.) If this locale-switching is indeed a feature of en-UserGuide, then hunting for margin violations and fixing them manually becomes even more tedious than it is. What would be a more general solution to this? mn
