Hi Julien, thanks for your reply ;-) You proposal helped me to pin down the effect somewhat more. Since i'm using the koma scrlttr2 class i had to use the command \thispagestyle{scrheadings} (which is used in my stye file for this document too. This doesn't solve my problem, though. It seems that the LaTeX command \printindex{} which is generated by LyX is the culprit. I suppose it issues a command like \thispagestyle{empty} because it is starting sort of a new chapter. Following this route i found a workaround. Her it is (in the hope that may be helpful for somebody else) * export my lyx file to LaTeX (pdflatex) * run pdflatex from the command line on this a first time (which generates an *.idx file) * run makeindex on this file (without extension) (which generates an *.ind file which will be input during the next pdflatex run) In my reply to your personal account i forgot the most important point ,-( *** Edit the *.ind file *** After the first line \begin{theindex} add the line \thispagestyle{scrheadings} * final run of pfdlatex on the *.tex source file And here we are, the first page of the index has the desired header and footer lines.
