Koma Script Letter (v.2) Lyx Example does not compile
Has anyone tried to use the French examples of KomaScript letters listed in
the wiki. recently? I am referring, in particular, to
ksl2nf.lyx
ksl2pro.lyx
listed at: http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/KomaLetter2
when I try to view the pdf file, I get a couple of fatal LaTeX errors:
Class scrlttr2 Info: Letter-Class-Option `NF' loaded on input line 34.

File: NF.lco 2007/03/12 v1.0 Third party LaTeX2e KOMA letter-class-option
)
! Undefined control sequence.

I do not understand this error---most likely because I know next to nothing
about this class. But that's exactly why I am trying to use the example
Help greatly appreciated.

Well, it's bad form to reply to one's own messages, but here are further
information:
I can get the letter sample to compile if I change the language from French to
English in the Document settings. I suppose that's because LyX changes some
parameter in the LaTeX preamble it produces that would otherwise conflict with
other KomaScript settings. Is my interpretation correct? If so, what should I
do if I want to produce letter-templates for other languages in addition to
English?

I updated the Lyx KomaScript Letter2 files recently (2008-10-27) to make
them compatible with other languages and newer versions of KomaScript.
But, of course, you need to set your language in the preamble.
Which Lyx version and which KomaScript version are you using?

Hi Jean-Marie,
thanks for your extremely prompt reply. I am using Lyx 1.6.0 with the version
of KomaScript that came with the installation of Kubuntu 8.10. I am not sure
which version it is. The class file:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 87668 2008-07-04 03:24 scrlttr2.cls
seems recent, but there are no version information within the file itself.
The problem I am encountering is rather peculiar: with the document language
set to French (in the LyX settings), LaTeX does not compile the letter. If I
change the setting to English, French, or German (the other languages I am
interested in), everything seems to work fine. My rather limited knowledge of
LaTex and almost complete ignorance of the scrlttr2 class is preventing me
from identifying the source of the error.
I can live with this, as my main languages are English and Italian, but I
would like to understand what's going on.
Cheers,
Stefano

Hi Stefano,
I don't quite understand what's going on either: it obviously does
compile for me in French. If I change the document language to American,
it still compiles. In this case, I get Invoice no. instead of Numéro
de facture for the ksl2pro example. If I change the document language
to German, I get Rechnungsnummer which is OK.
I looked at the Latex code produced in my french version around the line
that produces an error on your installation:

of KomaScript that came with the installation of Kubuntu 8.10. I am not sure
which version it is. The class file:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 87668 2008-07-04 03:24 scrlttr2.cls
seems recent, but there are no version information within the file itself.
The problem I am encountering is rather peculiar: with the document language
set to French (in the LyX settings), LaTeX does not compile the letter. If I
change the setting to English, French, or German (the other languages I am
interested in), everything seems to work fine. My rather limited knowledge of
LaTex and almost complete ignorance of the scrlttr2 class is preventing me
from identifying the source of the error.
I can live with this, as my main languages are English and Italian, but I
would like to understand what's going on.
Cheers,
Stefano

Hi Jean-Marie,
thanks for your extremely prompt reply. I am using Lyx 1.6.0 with the version
of KomaScript that came with the installation of Kubuntu 8.10. I am not sure
which version it is. The class file:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 87668 2008-07-04 03:24 scrlttr2.cls
seems recent, but there are no version information within the file itself.

Hi Stefano,
I don't quite understand what's going on either: it obviously does
compile for me in French. If I change the document language to American,
it still compiles. In this case, I get "Invoice no." instead of "Numéro
de facture" for the ksl2pro example. If I change the document language
to German, I get "Rechnungsnummer" which is OK.
I looked at the Latex code produced in my french version around the line
that produces an error on your installation:
\makeatother
\usepackage{babel}
\addto\extrasfrench{\providecommand{\og}{\leavevmode\flqq~}\providecommand{\fg}{

This compiles without problems here and my software version are:

Hope this helps
