Re: Bibliography does not print when using biblatex instead of bibtex
Hi Philip, thank you, I will check what you said - makes sense. However, if the path to my bib-file is wrong, how can I cite references from it? And: never ever did my system complain capital letters nor spaces in file names in any of my numerous LyX documents (before trying biblatex). Anyway, I will check that too and then report back. Michael On 07/01/2015 03:25 PM, PhilipPirrip wrote: Hi Michael, There's a lot going on in your example, but what's causing problems (if everything else worked before) might be just that you haven't set the path to your .bib file in the right way. Path names in Linux are case sensitive (yours begins with /Home, which is almost always /home), and there's probably user name missing (you have /Home/Documents, should probably be /home/michael/Documents). So please first check this. Use pwd terminal command in the directory where your .bib file is, or check the path in the file browser (might only show when you press CTRL-L) If your .lyx and .bib files are in the same directory, I'd suggest using this code in your preamble (just replace name_of_your_bib_file.bib) \newcommand\mybibfile{name_of_your_bib_file.bib} \ifcsname input@path\endcsname\else\def\input@path{{./}}\fi \def\@@setabsolutebibname#1#2{\edef\@@absolutebibname{#1#2}} \expandafter\@@setabsolutebibname\input@path{\mybibfile} \addbibresource{\@@absolutebibname} instead of \addbibresource{/Home/Documents/Arbeiten Mike/Hausarbeiten/MaHomex_Mike.bib} This will make your project portable.

Michael Hi Michael, biblatex is a differnet program than bibtex. One might allow paths that are case-insensitive (this is incorrect behavior in my opinion on Linux) while the other might not. Also note that LyX is a separate program from the above two, so you might be able to select a reference from LyX but biblatex not find it (again, because they are separate programs). Also, note that the path for biblatex is set at a different place (the preamble) than the path that LyX uses to access the bibliography (the bibtex inset). If these two paths are identical, it should work. Jürgen Hello Jürgen, Philip, there is some progress; I followed Philip's advice and checked the path to the bib file. in \addbibresource{/home/m39/Documents/Arbeiten Mike/...} the ../mb39/.. was missing. After correcting that the Reference appeared in the PDF document. However, I also selected under Content all references and ticked Add bibliography to TOC. But that had no effect at all. Only _*cited*_ references are shown and the *_TOC has still no bibliography entry_*. Cheers, Michael

Hi Philip, thank you, I will check what you said - makes sense. However, if the path to my bib-file is wrong, how can I cite references from it? And: never ever did my system complain capital letters nor spaces in file names in any of my numerous LyX documents (before trying biblatex). Anyway, I will check that too and then report back. Michael On 07/01/2015 03:25 PM, PhilipPirrip wrote: Hi Michael, There's a lot going on in your example, but what's causing problems (if everything else worked before) might be just that you haven't set the path to your .bib file in the right way. Path names in Linux are case sensitive (yours begins with /Home, which is almost always /home), and there's probably user name missing (you have /Home/Documents, should probably be /home/michael/Documents). So please first check this. Use "pwd" terminal command in the directory where your .bib file is, or check the path in the file browser (might only show when you press CTRL-L) If your .lyx and .bib files are in the same directory, I'd suggest using this code in your preamble (just replace name_of_your_bib_file.bib) \newcommand\mybibfile{name_of_your_bib_file.bib} \ifcsname input@path\endcsname\else\def\input@path{{./}}\fi \def\@@setabsolutebibname#1#2{\edef\@@absolutebibname{#1#2}} \expandafter\@@setabsolutebibname\input@path{\mybibfile} \addbibresource{\@@absolutebibname} instead of \addbibresource{/Home/Documents/Arbeiten Mike/Hausarbeiten/MaHomex_Mike.bib} This will make your project portable.

I used the recipe from the same wiki page. Attaching a working example, might help. Hallo Philip, your example file is working here as anticipated. So, one may conclude the problem with my attached sample file (bibliography not printed) is NOT caused by shortcomings of LyX and KBibtex but may have to do with my settings. See attached files. I left the basic structure intact as it might be significant towards the problem and you can see all my settings . The paper is using most of special elements needed and typical in linguistics. Hence, you probably have to install other package(s), e.g. covington.sty Thanks and regards, Michael

One might allow paths that are case-insensitive (this is incorrect behavior in my opinion on Linux) while the other might not. Also note that LyX is a separate program from the above two, so you might be able to select a reference from LyX but biblatex not find it (again, because they are separate programs). Also, note that the path for biblatex is set at a different place (the preamble) than the path that LyX uses to access the bibliography (the bibtex inset). If these two paths are identical, it should work. Jürgen Hello Jürgen, Philip, there is some progress; I followed Philip's advice and checked the path to the bib file. in \addbibresource{/home/m39/Documents/Arbeiten Mike/...} the ../mb39/.. was missing. After correcting that the Reference appeared in the PDF document. However, I also selected under Content "all references" and ticked "Add bibliography to TOC". But that had no effect at all. Only _*cited*_ references are shown and the *_TOC has still no bibliography entry_*. Cheers, Michael
Bibliography does not print when using biblatex instead of bibtex
Dear Friends of LyX, I used bibtex in various documentswith single and sectioned bibliographies and that worked without problems.

colored reference numbers in citations
Dear Friends of LyX, In PDF I needed green colored reference numbers in citations but at the same time I did not want a red colored TOC. All the other references and backreferences could have printed their own predefined color. I eventually found out how to achieve this. Document Settings PDF Properties General: Activate Hyperref Support; Additional options *linktoc=none* Hyperlinks: Activate Color Links, Backreferences 'Page' Bookmarks: Level 3 (I use section, subsection and subsubsection) So, basically the key lies in the option *linktoc=none* Thanks and regards Michael

Dear Lyxers, I am using a LyX example document where the Page margins are ticked as 'Default'. I can untick and then enter new values for the margins. However, I can see no change in the PDF document. Has anyone an idea why? Michael Berger Michael Berger, Dipl. Ing.

Richard Hi Richard, I add the tex file as well. classicthesis-article is an example document from within André Miede's 'classicthesis-Lyx-v4.1' collection. None of the two allows for changing the page margins. While that was never necessary to do in the first, it is necessary in the latter because the top and bottom margins are unacceptably meager.

For that reason I also attach the file classicthesis-config.tex as integral part of 'classicthesis-Lyx-v4.1'. I hope you can open the example as it could be some other file(s) out of the entire collection may also be needed. Thanks and cheers!

Package inputenc Error

no page numbers in PDF printout
Hi LyX friends, over time I produced quite a number of documents including some rather complex dissertations using André Miede's classicthesis-LyX-v4.1 but never faced this problem before. When trying to use Miede's example file classicthesis-article.lyx the page numbers can be seen at the bottom of each page but not on the printout. All attempts to resolve this by experimenting with the Page Margins in LyX Documents Settings failed. Any hint how to resolve this problem? Michael Berger Michael Berger, Dipl. Ing.

Hi, please clarify: you can see the pagenumbers in the pdf compiled with the classicthesis example, but not on the printed output? If so, this might be a printer issue. Have you tried the printer in the next office or at home or the printer of a neighbour? Best regards Johannes Thanks to both of you Johannes, Charles you got it right, it works on another printer! But I should have mentioned that all my other documents do show page numbers in PDF printouts except the one I am about to compose. And both printers are set to A4 Format. I will find another driver for that stubborn one. Thanks and Cheers! Michael
