Re: interesting behaviour
John Coppens ha scritto: LyX uses existing tools to make the final PDF (not included with the LyX package). So the size doesn't really depend on LyX, but on the tools you have installed. Eg. pdflatex is one of the popular tools, dvipdf and ps2pdf are others. Check in Preferences, in the converter section, which is configured. John Hello and thanks i found what was the problem, i went into preferences->files and unselected the "vectorial graphic" option in pdflatex.. then the size became 9Mb.. i hope this won't cause printing problems..

interesting behaviour
I noticed an interesting behaviour: If i make a document with lyx in ubuntu hardy, the pdf that comes out is around 9Mb if i do in debian lenny, the pdf that comes out is 20Mb! of course both the sources are the same! what could cause this???
pagenumbering
Hi all i am paginating my thesis with lyx, i divided the document into many child documents and made a page called Thesis which joins together (by putting add child document one after the other). Now, while the first pages, which uses roman numbering show correct placement of the number (on the bottom outside), the following child document, which uses arabic page numbering is performing incorrectly, by putting the page numbering in the wrong side of the page. Is there any way to make lys fix this? Thanks Assa

change page order for "parts"
Hello i was wondering if is possible to tell LyX, to impaginate following this rule: the page bearing the Part I, Part II or similar, should be always the front side of a sheet, since at the moment i have "part" pages in the back side of the sheet as well (i am printing double side). I am not sure i am clear enough, but i will try to use a more specific language: I want the "part" to be always printed in the recto of the paper sheet, NEVER it should end up in the verso.. Is that possible? Thanks alot! Agostino

May be you can split your ps file with psselect -p 1 file.ps file1.ps and include this file1.ps into a lyx graphic. Do this for all other pages. By, Friedrich Thanks! i will try your way! Agostino

Re: gnumeric and lyx
Christopher Reeve ha scritto: What if you import your .tex file into LyX by going File>Import>LaTeX (plain) Then copy and paste the bits you need into your main LyX document. Does that work? If not you might have to modify your .tex file slightly to a format that LyX supports, or include a missing package. What are the errors? Chris. Hello unfortunately it doesn't work .. i just get a bunch of errors when i try to compile it (also it doesn't look correct having a lot of \gnumeric here and there) now if i have a matrix in text format is there a way to import it in lyx w/o having to manually type each cell? Thanks assa

How to fix modernCV in Debian and derivates..
Hello everyone probably some of you have noticed that the modernCV template doesn't compile in debian etch, testing, and ubuntu. I posted the bug and got no feedback so i found a workaround for that: first of all download the CTAN modernCV package http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/moderncv.html then unpack it in /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/moderncv (of course don't unpack the readme files and the examples directory) then as root run: texhash reconfigure lyx and your modernCV will be working perfectly.

How to have numbered equations using KOMA scripts.
Hi everyone i found that lyx is an excellent tool for writing for academics papers, however, while i am pretty satisfied with the floating tables, and floating pictures, i still couldn't find a way to have all my equations numbered (not showing in the summary but just numbered) Most of the time i just put an equation or two in between my writing, i do using the Math display function, so i end up with a nice equation centered in the page, but that is not numbered... i would like it will be automatically numbered according to the part, chapter and so on.. is that possible? Thanks Agostino
koma script where to get them..
Hi everyone i saw most ppl are using koma scripts, i suppose they are sort of template for LyX, i googled them a bit and found a big GERMAN website about it.. but my knowledge of german is 0, is there somewhere else i should look? Thanks
Re: Re: [new user] hello everyone, and 2 questions..
rgheck ha scritto: If you search the archives, you'll find a lot on this. Generally, the view is that title pages are best configured manually, rather than using LaTeX's built-in title pages. Hello Thanks, I will try to configure the title page by setting it standard text This depends in part upon what document class you are using. But something like \date{} should just set the date to an empty string. yes i figured out by using the macro "date" and putting a space on it.. Where are you trying to put them? rh I am trying to put them in the title, I need some spaces in between the title words, the setup i need to use is pretty funny: headers and title in the middle a picture then on the left my name, and on the right the teachers names.. then a line and the year... I think is best i make it as standard text! Thanks
[new user] hello everyone, and 2 questions..
Hi everyone i am a new user, i am writing my degree thesis in lyx since i don't want to use Word (the results with lyx are far better) However i incurred in 3 problem that i need to solve if i want to make EVERYthing in lyx: 1. I should use a particular position for the inscription of the first page, the title should be in the middle, and the authors should be on the left and right...Title works fine, but authors wants to put in the middle as well...I tried to use standard, but then they switch to the next page..this is unacceptable. So i need to know how can i force them to be all in the same page, or how to relax the restrictions on the position of text for the Author field. 2. I don't want the date to be added automatically at the end of every chapter i make, how can i remove it? 3. seems to me that defskip, smallskip, bigskip don't work usually unless i "protect" them...is this fine? Thanks everyone!
