Good idea! The best printer driver for this is the Generic Postscript driver directly
from Adobe. Look at: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/printerdrivers/win

The 4.x directory contains the drivers for Win9x, the 5.x is for NT.

HINT for those of you who work with Linux & Windoze

Hi everybody:

I've been reading several messages lately about image conversion under
Windoze, this is a little trick I've used with success to convert *any* sort
of document, graphic or whatever to Postscript.

You just have to install another printer to your Windoze box, choose a PS
Printer and specify its output to a file by default. Now all you got to do
is print any documento or graphic you want to convert to PostScript through
this PS printer driver. The output PS file can be edited with any Corel,
Photoshop, gimp, xv or the like program. You choose the platform!! Now you
can use it with LyX!!

See you!

Help with fancyhdr style and foot notes!

1999-01-17 Thread José Ángel



    

    
Hello everybody!
 
    I 
am trying to increase the separation between the last line of text in a page and 
the line above the footnotes. To my perception, they are very close each other. 
I've printed and read carefully the dvi documentation, fancyhdr.dvi. It seems 
that the only "distance" you can change is \footruleskip. The documentation 
states that the only way of doing this is by redefining \footrule. Please, could 
anybody who knows a little bit of Latex tell me how to do 
so?
 
    
Thanks in advance

I don't know if it is stated somewhere, but I just stepped across a
problem with g-brief:  At least teTeX-pre0.9 (which is included e.g. in
SuSE 6.1) does have an older version of g-brief.cls that does not
support the \Land command.
Those using it should get a more recent version...

Re: printing lyx files on Windoze

1999-01-17 Thread Jonathon McKitrick

Well, there isn't a higher resolution listed, but when i edited the box to
600x600, the resolution came out better, but all the text was squashed
together with almost no space between lines.  But at least it was better
quality.

What kind of printer do you use? Maybe you are used to a 600 dpi laser
print out and managed somehow to configure LyX/dvips/... to use 300 dpi.
That's what happened to me a couple of times...

In fact, for other encodings the default is what we use now.

I'll change to use \textasciixxx in those two places.

OK, wild speculation: do you use french style for your document? In
this case, you have to make sure that you use a latex format which is
created for babel and not for franch.sty. I'm not sure what I ask
makes much sense to you, but I can assure you that using the wrong
latex format can cause a lot of interesting consequences.

However, having an example .lyx file which causes you problems (along
with the corresponding .tex and the .log file produced by LaTeX) would
help immensely.

Nothing. I did a mistake when defining the default command for tth.
Please use the following in your .lyx/lyxrc file:
\html_command "tth -t < '$$FName' > '$$OutName'"

Hope this helps,

HTML export

1999-01-17 Thread Claudio Geraldo Schoen

Hi everybody,

Maybe I missed something, but when I saw, lyx was exporting HTML :-) I
should say, it is a nice addition to a nice text processor.

Then I upgraded lyx to v. 1.1.2 in my Red Hat 6.0/i686 installation and
the feature didn't work (lyx returned the message that the file was
successfully created, but there was no file at all in my hard disk).

Then I remembered that maybe I should install tth first to get my
documents converted, and I did it using Sylvan's rpm. The lyx feature
still didn't work and I re-ran ./configure and the make(s). During the
./configure action I observed that the script found tth in my system.

No matter what I do, lyx returns now the message "unable to convert to
HTML". The weird thing is that tth is working fine (I am able to convert
manually my lyx-generated tex files). I'm suspecting of some
configuration problem, but I couldn't find any mention to HTML export in
the documentation.

Do someone has a clue of what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Claudio Schoen
