Re: What is the best way to upgrade to LyX 1.6?
Thanks to all your responses. Sorry I didn't mention this, I am using Windows XP. It seems to me that I should stick to the 1.5.5 and not move up until we get the final OK to do so. I don't want to mess things up. I was surprised from James' mail. How is it possible to have a 1.6 and a future 1.5.7 side by side?

LyX 1.6 PDF output
Hi. I was doing some document in LyX 1.6 (Ubuntu) and when I printed it the text was blurry, even if it was looking good on XPDF. Also, I had an EPS plot (made in Inkscape) in the document and the font in the printed version was bold instead of plain. The formulas were printed alright. The weird thing is that if I exported the document to PDF and opened it with Adobe Reader, the printed version was perfect. I didn't change the default configuration in LyX for the document, which was made with the Article class. What can it be happening? - Julio Rojas [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ubuntu missing screen fonts for symbols: solution.
I was asking about missing or incorrect symbols yesterday. I found a solution. In Lyx on Ubuntu 8.04, I noticed that SOME mathematical characters do not show properly on the screen. (Many symbols are fine.) For example, \cdot shows as x where it should have the centered dot and \succ just shows ERT succ, where it should have a curved greater-than sign. I saw one other person post about this problem in this list, so I'm recording the answer for posterity. So far, in Ubuntu, I've found 2 solutions. Following advice on http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/Qt, I get the idea that a truetype font will fix this. One approach is to install the font package http://movementarian.org/latex-xft-fonts-0.1.tar.gz; under ~/.fonts and run fc-cache -fv. That works. The math symbols in lyx all seem to display correctly. I've confirmed that the above workaround also works if one uses the supposedly better BaKoMa fonts, but I don't see much difference myself. These are the magic fonts that are installed by either package: cmmi10.ttf eufm10.ttf msam10.ttf cmsy10.ttf cmex10.ttf cmr10.ttf msbm10.ttf wasy10.ttf The one that fixes \cdot and \succ is cmsy10.ttf. I wondered why more Ubuntu users aren't befuddled by this. After some googling, I learned that cmsy10.ttf is available as an optional Ubuntu package latex-xft-fonts. So I suppose that many Ubuntu users have that installed automatically so they never fight the mystery of missing screen fonts. I'll suggest to Ubuntu's lyx packager that latex-xft-fonts should be a required package. I try to tell myself I'm a better person for having spent an afternoon wading through this, but it is difficult to do it with a straight face. -- Paul E.

LyX 1.6 PDF output
Hi. I was doing some document in LyX 1.6 (Ubuntu) and when I printed it the text was blurry, even if it was looking good on XPDF. Also, I had an EPS plot (made in Inkscape) in the document and the font in the printed version was bold instead of plain. The formulas were printed alright. The weird thing is that if I exported the document to PDF and opened it with Adobe Reader, the printed version was perfect. I didn't change the default configuration in LyX for the document, which was made with the Article class. What can it be happening? - Julio Rojas [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you're in math mode and you type '\ddots' and the hit the 'space'

Can't export to PDF in 1.6 RC2
I'm testing right now the second Release Candidate of LyX 1.6 in Windows XP (Pro SP3) and when I try to export the document to PDF get the following message: "No information for converting pdf3 format files to pdf. Define a converter in the preferences". It's strange as I never have this problem before and v1.5.6 still export the file with no problem and as far as can see the parameters are equals. I've already update MiKTeX, reconfigure LyX and were no-problems during the install, any guesses?

Obama, Hope, hope, etc..., New York : Faber, 2008, 4th edition You use there the edition field in a bib entry with an integer, most European styles put the number in superscript after or before the year (German way). The edition field works with most bibtex styles - reprint (meaning a photomecanical reproduction of an old book) Avicenna, Liber canonis, Venice, 1507 (reprint Hildesheim : Olms Verlag, 1964) Then you have to use Biblatex that adds to the bib file fields an origyear, origlocation, origtitle fields for reprint information or translation. The new chicago biblatex style uses them. - translation J. L. Borges, Histoire universelle de l'infamie, Paris : Christian Bourgeois, 1985 (orig. Historia universal de la infamia, Buenos Aires, 1935) Possible with the Biblatex origyear, origlocation, origtitle with some macro magic. If the bibliographic style that you want to use does not mandate to put the reprint / translation information in the footnotes citation but you just want to add this information at the end of a bibliographic entry in the ending bibliography then use the note field.
Ubuntu missing screen fonts for symbols: solution.
I was asking about missing or incorrect symbols yesterday. I found a solution. In Lyx on Ubuntu 8.04, I noticed that SOME mathematical characters do not show properly on the screen. (Many symbols are fine.) For example, "\cdot" shows as "x" where it should have the centered dot and "\succ" just shows ERT "succ", where it should have a curved greater-than sign. I saw one other person post about this problem in this list, so I'm recording the answer for posterity. So far, in Ubuntu, I've found 2 solutions. Following advice on http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/Qt, I get the idea that a truetype font will fix this. One approach is to install the font package "http://movementarian.org/latex-xft-fonts-0.1.tar.gz; under ~/.fonts and run "fc-cache -fv". That works. The math symbols in lyx all seem to display correctly. I've confirmed that the above workaround also works if one uses the supposedly better BaKoMa fonts, but I don't see much difference myself. These are the magic fonts that are installed by either package: cmmi10.ttf eufm10.ttf msam10.ttf cmsy10.ttf cmex10.ttf cmr10.ttf msbm10.ttf wasy10.ttf The one that fixes "\cdot" and "\succ" is cmsy10.ttf. I wondered why more Ubuntu users aren't befuddled by this. After some googling, I learned that "cmsy10.ttf" is available as an optional Ubuntu package "latex-xft-fonts". So I suppose that many Ubuntu users have that installed automatically so they never fight the mystery of missing screen fonts. I'll suggest to Ubuntu's lyx packager that latex-xft-fonts should be a required package.
