hi,
i guess this question is not that unique, but there appear to be too many
answers and not all of them perfect!
my situation is this:
* i want to maintain ONLY a .lyx file and the associated .eps figures
* want to autogenerate (using a Makefile?) a postscript file, a pdf file
and
html documentation from this lyx source.
* figures must appear in all the output formats
* links must also work in the html output, would be nice if they worked
in the pdf
output too (eg linked references, table of contents)
* equations and complicated structures should appear in all formats -
even if
they are represented by a bitmap (eg html)
I've tried various combinations and various options and none seem perfect.
i'm a little confused. there appears to be three pdf export options in lyx.
some options have the figures missing. some options produce one html file,
command line options produce a directory with images in it (this is good as
it works). there appear to be more than one path from lyx to a target:
lyx->tex>pdf or lyx->tex->dvi->pdf...
as someone new to lyx (but not to computing in general), i must say i'm left
a little confused as to which options are the best for which scenarios.
i'd be grateful for any clarifying comments and recommendations.
which is the path from lyx to pdf which gives the best results? why doesn't
export to html work well from the lyx menu, but does from the command
line...
i'm sure others are also in a similar position where they want high quality
outputs from a single lyx (+ .eps) source.
i'm using lyx 1.2 on mandrake 8.2
thanks
