lyxhtml and calibre and mobi and epub
I am using LyX 2.0.0 (2011-04-29) on a Ubuntu system with lyx 2.0.0-1
packages. I export XHTML using the lyxhtml export.
My goal is to create mobi (for kindle) and epub (for nook)files. I am
using calibre 0.8.8 for conversion from the XHTML file.
Here are my issues:
1) the XHTML has:
http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";>
1
3
but the epub shows "13" and mobi has nothing.
2) Some lyx/tex sections are like "First~Second~Third" but the lyxhtml
output in my table of contents is "FirstSecondThird" (no spaces). So I
manually fixed them.
3) My print cross references say "See page elsewhere". I fixed this
with:
sed -e 's,on page \(\)elsewhere,\1here,' -e 's,page \(\)elsewhere,\1here,' -e 's,pages \(\)elsewhere and \(\)elsew,\1here and \2,'
4) I made some hyperlinks back into hyperlinks:
sed -e 's,\([^<]*\),\1,g'
5) My footnotes work with the xhtml ... when I hover over them they
popup. But these hover style footnotes don't work in the calibre viewer.
The document shows the small underlined number but clicking or hovering
on it does nothing.
The xhtml has:
div.foot:hover div.foot_inner {
display: block;
border: 1px double black;
margin: 0em 1em;
padding: 1em;
}
This was missing from the epub stylesheet.
I think the epub and mobi don't support hovering footnotes.
I see elyxer supports different footnote features. I didn't try all the
elyxer features yet. (I see it has graphical arrow links I want to
remove and also some "index" tags are left in my main content.)
6) The xhtml output had links to horizontal rules in my table of
contents:
>
I simple removed that line for each.
Anyways what do you all do to generate good epub and/or mobi files from
LyX?
I also tried lyx2ebook but it crashed when I used it. (I sent traceback
and example lyx file to the developer.)
Thank you

Re: Examples of integration between Lyx, Sage computations, and PDFLateX
The attachments on this thread have been posted to the wiki (thanks Christian):
http://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Modules/#toc7
http://wiki.lyx.org/uploads/Modules/Sage
Note that if you customize the sage.module file, you can load the
changes immediately by entering "layout-reload" in the minibuffer.
As Murat has done: I hereby grant permission to license my
contributions to the sage module for LyX under the GNU General Public

Re: lyx 2.0.0 URL error "unable to open external file" on Ubuntu 11.10 . File path is correct!!

"Firefox can't find the file at / /media/Nano/Documents/tcm_files/foo.xls" It seems that lyx maybe passing an incorrect file path . When the link is clicked on in the pdf, Acrobat Reader asks for permission before opening a linked file and gives a file path: "file:%20/media/Nano/Documents/tcm_files/foo.xls" Here is the file path placed in the address bar of firefox by Acrobat "file:/// /media/Nano/Documents/tcm_files/foo.xls" Opening the .xls file (if it could find it) in firefox by Acrobat is no problem firefox just opens it in Libreoffice. I tested this by opening the .xls file from the "File" dialogue in firefox. Also for completeness, www links in the lyx created pdf work perfectly as they should opening a web page in firefox.
