article or AMS article) for anything other than an actual journal paper.  So my

I don't know of any plan.

You can use view-pdf and print from it. 
Or is it this what you refer to with the term "export"?

IEEEtran help

2011-03-08 Thread Myriam Abramson 

Help! I have a paper due tomorrow! The specification for the papers
requires that subsections be numbered and IEEEtran seems to make them
alphabetical. I tried to change that by putting

\renewcommand{\thesubsection}{\arabic{subsection}}

in the latex preamble but I'm still getting them with the
alphabet. Any ideas?

TIA

Journals tend to have quirky formatting choices, which are enforced in their
LaTeX class files.  I always use the most generic class suitable (usually
article or AMS article) for anything other than an actual journal paper.  So my
first suggestion is that you switch from IEEEtran to something with fewer
formatting features embedded in the LaTeX class, and then make any adjustments
you need (with ERT if necessary).

That said, try \renewcommand{\thesubsectiondis}{\arabic{subsection}.} in the
preamble (note the 'dis' appended to the command name).

RevTeX4 and prb

2011-03-08 Thread Bruce Pourciau 
An article submitted to a physics journal has reached the stage where  
they are asking for a specific document class and style, namely


\documentclass[12pt,aps,prb,preprint]{revtex4}

Presently the article is in the standard Article class with Plain  
style. If I can make this change from within LyX, exactly how would I  
do it? On LyX/Mac 1.6.5, TeXLive 2008.


I use a mix of citations in the text and endnotes, but the journal  
puts all citations in the endnotes. Is there an efficient way to make  
this change?


I'm a LyX user on a Mac and have never worked directly with a tex  
file, so I'd appreciate knowing how to handle this from within LyX,  
but if I can't, I can't.


Thanks for any assistance,

Bruce

Go to the menu Document->Settings --> Document class

Choose article(ReVTeX 4) from the document class drop down menu.

Remove the chosen predefined and copy into the Custom field:
12pt,aps,prb,preprint

I didn't realize that the options 12pt,aps,prb,preprint could be  
inserted in the custom field. Thank you. But now I get a bunch of  
Undefined control sequence errors. The commands


\doublespacing
\the endnotes
 \@endanenote

all create errors. That was the second time I tried to View > PDF  
(pdflatex). The first time I got a whole bunch of errors related to  
bibliographic items.

I am afraid that revtex are sometimes difficult to deal with and I am in 
deep water here but some suggestions:

First of all be certain that you have not used double line spacing or other 
lines pacing in LyX. 

Also the endnotes must be made with the footnote command, the manual says :)
https://authors.aps.org/revtex4/auguide4-1.pdf

if this does not help, I will need a small example LyX file that displays the 
problem to help. Or maybe someone else on the list has worked more 
with revtex than me?

Biblatex Format => (Author Year: pp.)

2011-03-08 Thread Maurice 
Dear list,

I recently switched to Biblatex (in combination with LyX) and everything is 
working really well.

Atm, the short citations within my text look like:

Lorem ipsum (Author, Year, pp.)


How can I change that?


Thanks in advance,
