Thank you so much, Paul. That was so helpful.
If you don't mind me asking an elementary question -- how does one make the
'language' usage consistent throughout a file?
We're one of the few serious publishing houses (doing 12-16 books a year)
that uses Lyx for all its typesetting. Based in Goa, India. Would really
appreciate any help or pointers from anyone on how to make our books more
neat looking, specially with attractive chapter pages.

Thanks, Frederick
