Downloading LyX 1.6.4: Error by accessing the server
Dear LyX lists, I have tried to download the new lyx since it has been announced, but up to now is not successed. The server said. I have checked it everyday: -- Error! Could not connect. FTP server may be too busy. You tried to access the address ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.6.4, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page. -- I have also tried all of the mirrors, but I found that the newest LyX version is 1.6.0.

use authblk.sty from preprint package. The authblk.sty can handle up to 6
affiliation. I have use by putting this package in preamble like:
\usepackage[auth-lg]{authblk}
\author[1]{name of author 1}
\author[1,2]{name of author 2 with two affiliation}
\affil[1]{affiliation 1}
\affil[2]{affiliation 2}
etc, please read the documentation.
Btw, you don't need to put the author in editing area, because it already

Re: Problems with jpg-quality with ps2pdf
Hallo Robert, actually, this is not the problem of LyX nor LaTeX, but the problem of selected type of figure format. You made a vector figure but you save as a loosy compressed raster format. If you want the same figure as in Corel, either you use eps format (as suggested by Yago), or you use tiff with 450 or 600 dpi resolution (or you may compress as PNG). I prefer 600 dpi tiff format. You have only 10 figure, I think no problem with 600 dpi. Some eps from Corel may not be opened by some eps rendering program (like gv or epstopdf). If so, you can remove unneeded part of eps file (using text editor), for example the unknown text befor %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0 and after %%EOF (the newer Corel may not produce it).

I have never used REVTeX4, but maybe you can use the

You may use OT1 instead of T1 if you still use ae font with PDF output. I have used almost font in my document without any problem. LyX by default set as T1. You can change in lyxrc file under directory $HOME/.lyx/ around 7 line from the bottom line. Change from T1 to OT1.

if you use Qt, try Edit->Reference

expand Ausgabe tree to

highlight LaTeX then put TeX-kodierung (TeX-encoding) to: OT1
by default LyX use T1 fontencoding. That will produce an ugly font in PDF
if you use Computer Modern Font (default). Otherwise, change the default
font to pslatex, times or ae. Read the extended.lyx section 3.6 (as I

yes, you are right. There is an error if you used float figure. The
package can not combine with float because it will break the 2 column mode
into one-column exactly after the command \begin{strip}, which mean the
picture should be exactly in this location. The float can not be used in

Otherwise, try to use widefigure-float, but sometime it is not better than

don't use multicol. You can do 2 possible way, i.e:
insert a widefigure,
Insert->Float->Figure
in the float window, klick right mouse then click the box of Spalten

the float figure will be accross the column...
the second possibility is using sttools packages... (the best way as I

This seems not soo difficult... I have read the code of size10.clo,

Layouts --> Re: Announce: LyX 1.3.0 released.
Dear LyX-Users/Developers, I have already installed the LyX-1.3.0 with Xform front-end and work very well. I have one question... Are the layouts file in the lyx 1.3 completely compatible with LyX-1.2.x series? When not, what is the different? I have just copied the lyx-layouts directory from lyx1.3 to lyx1.2, but after reconfigure result some error, such as article.layout and a few more... Regards, Wayan

I have another question...
I set the document with fixed fontsize in the Layout Document with

I have done the following way but not sucsessful.
- put the \small (in ERT) between caption and table
- add the following command in preamble:
\let\oldtabular=\tabular
\def\tabular{\small\oldtabular}
both command was successful for a small size table. For the table with a
huge columns and rows (minimum 11 columns x 50 rows) was not successful. I
have set the font into palatino. All text and small tables are changed to
palatino, but the big table is still in default font (computer modern

change the fontsize from 12 to \small in a big table?

Change the figure size after re-open the file.
Dear LyX-Users,
I have set the figure based on height, let see the following dialog
window skema:
--- Ouput
Width ___ in
Height 100 text%
--
and I save it and close the LyX.
If I open the LyX and that file, the setting will back like following:
--- Ouput
Width 100 Scale%
Height 100 text%
--
and I must deactivate the value 100 by changing to in or other scale.
Could you explain me, how to fix it. I have used LyX-1.3.0cvs due to the
command \mathrm{} in equation mode. I have a lot of chemical formulas. The
\mathrm{} in LyX-1.2.2 is still in italic mode.
