Thanks, Bob. I am needing a size even smaller than tiny.
I'm unaware of any smaller sizing. The default document font
size
controls
how small tiny is. If you set the default font smaller then
tiny
would
decrease also.
Using TeX in the preamble, you could do any size you want (in
text
mode). Here is an example LaTeX file that seems to do what is
desired:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\def\supertiny{ \font\supertinyfont = cmr10 at 4pt \relax
\supertinyfont}
\begin{document}
Hello \tiny Guten Tag \supertiny Hello \normalsize Goodbye
\end{document}
Obviously, the \def ... goes into the LaTeX Preamble, and the
\supertiny command has to be entered as ERT. The size of the
supertiny font is 4pt as defined in the Preamble line, and you
can
make it as small as you want!
Thanks, Jens. In case one works with Mathpazo fonts, one should
replace cmr10 by what?
I think it would be either zpplcmr, pplr, or fplmr instead of cmr10.
Maybe a font expert can correct me if I'm wrong...
None works. And I have
$ locate mathpazo

Maybe this is another misunderstanding: are you trying to do this
in text mode or in an equation environment? Anyway, I just tried
something with mathpazo that works in equations:
$$
\fontsize{4}{5}\selectfont\sin\alpha
$$
produces a super tiny sine of alpha.
Regarding my earlier solution, it works for me... to see what's
wrong on your side one would need an example. But maybe this
alternative solution is what you really want.

Using TeX in the preamble, you could do any size you want (in text
mode). Here is an example LaTeX file that seems to do what is desired:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\def\supertiny{ \font\supertinyfont = cmr10 at 4pt \relax
\supertinyfont}
\begin{document}
Hello \tiny Guten Tag \supertiny Hello \normalsize Goodbye
\end{document}
Obviously, the \def ... goes into the LaTeX Preamble, and the
\supertiny command has to be entered as ERT. The size of the
supertiny font is 4pt as defined in the Preamble line, and you can
make it as small as you want!

I think it would be either zpplcmr, pplr, or fplmr instead of cmr10.

Maybe this is another misunderstanding: are you trying to do this in
text mode or in an equation environment? Anyway, I just tried
something with mathpazo that works in equations:
$$
\fontsize{4}{5}\selectfont\sin\alpha

produces a super tiny sine of alpha.

Correcting myself:
in a math equation, the font selection needs to be enclosed in an \mbox.
Here is a complete document that works as advertised. And it does NOT
work properly if I comment out mathpazo!
Jens
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{mathpazo}
\begin{document}
With or without displaystyle:
$$
\mbox{\fontsize{4}{6}\selectfont $\sin\alpha\frac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}$}
$$
$$
\mbox{\fontsize{4}{5}\selectfont $\displaystyle\sin\alpha\frac{1}
{\frac{1}{3}}$}
$$
$$
\mbox{\fontsize{2}{3}\selectfont $\displaystyle\sin\alpha\frac{1}
{\frac{1}{3}}$}
$$
\tiny For comparison, this is typed in tiny.
\normalsize Back to normal
\fontsize{2}{3}\selectfont If you can read this, you're using the
zoom function. Or you're not using mathpazo.

> replace cmr10 by what?
I think it would be either zpplcmr, pplr, or fplmr instead of cmr10.
Maybe a font expert can correct me if I'm wrong...
None works. And I have
$ locate mathpazo
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/mathpazo
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/mathpazo/fplmb.pfb
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/mathpazo/fplmbb.pfb
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/mathpazo/fplmbi.pfb
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/mathpazo/fplmr.pfb
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/mathpazo/fplmri.pfb
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/psnfss/mathpazo.sty

Maybe this is another misunderstanding: are you trying to do this
in text mode or in an equation environment? Anyway, I just tried
something with mathpazo that works in equations:
$$
\fontsize{4}{5}\selectfont\sin\alpha
$$
produces a super tiny sine of alpha.
Regarding my earlier solution, it works for me... to see what's
wrong on your side one would need an example. But maybe this
alternative solution is what you really want.

Correcting myself:
in a math equation, the font selection needs to be enclosed in an \mbox.
Here is a complete document that works as advertised. And it does NOT
work properly if I comment out mathpazo!
Jens
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{mathpazo}
\begin{document}
With or without displaystyle:
$$
\mbox{\fontsize{4}{6}\selectfont $\sin\alpha\frac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}$}
$$
$$
\mbox{\fontsize{4}{5}\selectfont $\displaystyle\sin\alpha\frac{1}
{\frac{1}{3}}$}
$$
$$
\mbox{\fontsize{2}{3}\selectfont $\displaystyle\sin\alpha\frac{1}
{\frac{1}{3}}$}
$$
\tiny For comparison, this is typed in tiny.
\normalsize Back to normal
\fontsize{2}{3}\selectfont If you can read this, you're using the
zoom function. Or you're not using mathpazo.
\end{document}

Re: wide tables
Hi!
This is not a nice behavoir. You can enter at that position that the line
break should be a conrol+enter secence. That produces normaly the linefeed
command ("\\" in Latex) but in tables it produces a linefeed on the
screen. It isn't affecting the printed document.
Try it.

---Reply to mail from Russ Ross about wide tables
I'm creating tables of two columns where the first column is just a
label, and the right column contains a paragraph or so of text. I set
the maximum width from the table layout dialog box, and it prints fine,
but it is nearly impossible to edit.
On the screen the body of text is displayed as a single horizontal line
(ie, no word wrap) for each entry, and the displayed table is _very_
wide. There is no horizontal scroll bar, so the only way I seem to be
able to work around it is to make the window as wide as I can, drag it
most of the way off the screen, then widen it again, etc. until the
part I want to edit is finally on the screen.
Is there a way to get it to use word wrap when editing inside tables on
the screen? Either the fixed width that I specified for the table, or
something convenient for the window size would be nice. If not, I'd
like to make a feature request :)
Right now, I end up loading the .lyx file into vi or something like
that to do editing of the table text, and that's really not a great way
to do it. Am I missing something simple here? Is there another
workaround?
Thanks!
