You can add your custom styles to the writer2latex configuration files. It is explained here : http://www.hj-gym.dk/~hj/writer2latex/doc/user-manual4.html#toc10 Globally what you have to do is to create a custom configuration file where you : 1) give the writer2latex options to take away most of the wysiwyg stuff (options formatting, and page_formatting) but leave the italic/bold etc... 2) create mapping for all your styles Then : 3) convert the file with writer2latex 4) clean the latex file. I have a sed script to do it but you can do it in your favorite vim. 5) Create a custom layout in LyX 5) import it in LyX with your layout. I use this workflow to convert old articles from MsWord to LyX and it works well. Cheers, Charles
