Re: problems with Lyx multi-language document under Windows

2007-05-22 Thread Ludek Borovansky

Hi Maria,

thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately it doesn't work for me that way. When I have a Russian 
document with some English words in it, everything works just fine. 
Problem is, when I write Russian document with another language which 
has some special characters also (for example Czech, Deutsch) then I get 
the error specified earlier. This error shows up only when specific 
characters for the second language are used (for example when I write 
only numbers with Deutsch or Czech language in Russian document, 
everything is OK). It seems to be that Lyx 1.4.4 under windows doesn't 
like two foreign languages  with their specific characters on the same 
line in one document :-(


Any other suggestion, could this be solved with ERT for example?

thank you

Ludek

Hi Ludek,

I can switch from Russian to English on the same line. I am using a 
Mac so things aren't exactly the same, but here is how I do it (LyX 
1.4.4, Intel/Mac OS 10.4.9):


1. LyX>Document>Settings>Language, set "Language" to Russian.
2. In your OS, switch to a Cyrillic/Russian keyboard layout when you 
need the Russian text. This works whether it's on the same line or 
not. English/Roman text appears when you switch back to the Roman 
keyboard layout.
3. View file through PDFLatex or any other method--it should render 
both English and Russian correctly.


There is also another method, describe on

Hi all,

I have a problem with Lyx 1.4.4 under Windows (and Miktex) writing
multi
language documents. I  have my document set up as Deutsch, but I need
from time to time to type in a Russian language  for example.But
when I
change a language via menu Edit/Text Style and also I change keyboard
layout under windows, I am able to write in Russian only when there is
no other language on the same line in the document. If there is for
example a text in Deutsch at the beginning of the  line and then I try
to type something in Cyrillic, I get error when trying to view
document
as a PDF file. It says something like:
Missing $ inserted - " ...\foreignlanguage{russian}{45Ů×ÁĐŮ×ÁĐÁ×ĐÁ×}"
and Latex error: command \DH unavailable in encoding T2A etc.

This error is not showing up if I write only Russian
document  or  if  I
keep  different languages on separate lines (not mixing languages
on the
same lines of text).

I have babel installed and enabled, also I have tried to switch to 1.5
beta 3 version of Lyx where I don't have this problem, but
unfortunately
this  version is not stable  for me yet and it keeps crashing now
and then.


Any help would be appreciated, I like Lyx and its layout of documents
very much.
