Printing
Hello to all, at the moment I try to print a paper (about 74 pages) written in "book- koma-script" class. The standard defaults in layout- document are set to: format: both sides Printing this paper gives a curiosity that means the margin on the first page doesn't fit to the following page (page 1 to 2). Margins are adjusted to 40mm space on the left side and 10mm on the right side. On the first page everything is quite okay, on the second page the margin is at the "wrong" side (allthough everything works properly !) If I would print my paper only one-sided everything would be allright! Is there a possibility to adjust margins on even and odd pages differently ? I didn't find special notes relating to this topic in the docs, where things are described more generally. I wonder if I'm the only user who is confronted with this, every help is appreciated ! Thanks in advance Thomas

math-delimiters
Is there an easy way to insert math-delimiters with the keyboard? __ Martijn Brouwer [EMAIL PROTECTED]
little bug displaying math-numbers
When I insert math numbers for a multiline equation, and then remove one of the lines (the last), LyX still displays the (#) for that line. Nevertheless it is removed from the file: it does not appear in the output and after closing and reopening, LyX does not display these extra math number indicators anymore.

Hi,
that's for me a known feature of ps2pdf...;-((.
The reason is that, obviously, pslatex does not map the bullet to a character of
the Type 1 font but includes a character definition for it. (You can see this
when opening the postscript file with a text editor.) This results in a bad
display with acroread, and, even worse, the bullets are not printed at all.
Ugly, indeed! Therefor I export to tex and use pdflatex, ... and the
bullets are OK.
Only doing that, I don't get my figures any more. I've tried inserting
graphics as Postscript, and that doesn't work either (pdflatex says "Unknown
graphics extension" for both EPS and PS files, which seems stupid to me. I
don't *want* to insert the pictures as Latex, because I want to *see* them,
I want to use Figure semantics within LyX. Besides I can't figure out how. I
tried importing as combined ps and latex, as xfig allows me to export that,
but pdflatex can't understand those either. When I imported as PDF, the
figures were only seen in a bounding box the size of the "page" they were
printed on IYSWIM.
So with PDF, it's bullet points, figures, well-rendered text - choose two,
you can't have all three. Gah!
I'd rather redefine the bullet point somehow. is this possible?
Sod it, unless someone can quickly come up with something sensible, I'm
jumping ship. Except it's a problem finding any other good enough
word-processor on Linux.
To be fair, most modern word-processors do allow a reasonable amount of
WYSIWYM anyway - you define styles (which the authors of the LyX
documentation chose to ignore) and you can apply those styles eg: "Title"
"Author" "Bullet list" "Section", "Subsection" etc. at will and define the
look of the styles independently. You can think of the WYSIWYG as a bonus
then.

distill is not better, although commercial software. :-(
It seems as if I had to change the itemization characters manually (in the

preserve the bullet character?
I don`t know the way to do so...
I found one way: Layout-Document-Bullet shape; there one selects the
Ding1 set and the bullet on the upper right. It looks just like the
well-known LaTeX bullet but is displayed and printed properly.

Try putting the following in your lyxrc file.
# These do pairs of: () {} [] ||

\bind "M-bracketright" "math-delim [ ]"
\bind "M-bracketleft" "math-delim { }"

I give you the following word of warning. These are very
convienient to use. However math-delim tends to use
sizes of delimiters that are too large when used in text mode.
Thus you should use these keyboard shortcuts wisely.
I wish latex or lyx had a "small-math-delim" capability but
none exists as far as I know.
