import tex-file to lyx with containing ERT-information
Hallo, from an own delevolped softwaretool I export statistics via tex-files, which I then import in lyx to use it in different documents. In a special case I generate tables and I want to format some table cells with the latex command \cellcolor. When I do this in lyx, I insert an ERT and insert the latex code. My question is how the 'generated' latex-code have to be, that the tex2lyx-converter generates an ERT for the resulting lyx-file. btw. - I'm working with lyx 2.0.5. Many thanks for help! - Tino

Hi Muhammed,
your example file contains many preamble code that may cause problems. Please only use there things
you know.
For example you have
\usepackage{xunicode,fontspec,xltxtra}
\usepackage{longtable,array,ragged2e, booktabs}
\usepackage{textcomp,url}
\usepackage{graphicx,pdfpages}
\usepackage{arabtex}
\usetocstyle{KOMAScript}
All this can be deleted because LyX takes care of all these packages. If you explicitly add them to
the preamble you can get compilation errors when viewing the PDF.
The next issue is that you set a graphics driver in the document settings. This is not recommended
until you explicitly need a special one for your publisher.
Now comes your problem: In the document settings you may not set the language package to babel.
XeTeX uses its own package called polyglossia and LyX will automatically use it but only if you are
not forcing babel.
The Arabic parts must furthermore in the language Arabic(arabi), not in Arabic (arabtex).
(arabtex is really awful for multi-language documents and can in general not be used when non-TeX
fonts are used.) I updated the Wiki page now accordingly:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Arabic
As last issue you should consider to remove the typewriter font style from your Arabic to get a
nicer output.
Attached is your fixed file. (I had to use there another font because I haven't
your installed.)
