Export latex - any way to inline bibtex formatted refs?
Hi all, A journal I am planning to submit a paper to wants all references to be inlined into the main .tex file - they don't accept separate bibtex files or .bbl files. Is there any way to achieve this with LyX when I export to latex? If not with lyx only, is there any other way to achieve the same effect using a combination of lyx and shell scripts?

Re: Export latex - any way to inline bibtex formatted refs?
This issue comes up so often that it is surprising indeed that there is no built-in Lyx method of doing that. What I do in such cases (every time I send out a manuscript to a journal, for example), is to: 1. Export from Lyx to plain Latex 2. Run Latex on the file, to generate correct references AND a .bbl file related to my manuscript 3. Open the Latex file with an ASCII editor and paste the .bbl file into it. 4. Save the file, and send it to the journal.

bevel and shadow effects for beamer
I'm trying to port a powerpoint presentation to beamer, but it has to mostly mimic the original design. I'm done most things, the only thing I can't figure out if it's even possible is to get a 3d effect on slide title fonts (bevel + shadow). Is there a way to do it with beamer? I found the outline package or fontspec + xetex for shadows and such, but I can't get the bevel effect (inner shadow and highlight to get the 3d effect). thanks
