comma as separator in german numbers
Hello, The german way of spelling numbers isn´t using "." as the floating point in numbers like "1.234" but a comma ",", such that the example would look like "1,234". The trouble is that the postscript output of "1,234" typed in math-mode isn´t "1,234" but carries an extra space:"1, 234". Is there a way around this feature? At the moment I use a workaround: I leave the math-editor for the comma but this doesn´t work for more complicated formulas. Any help is very welcome. Many thanks to the people behind the LYX-project. I don't miss any MS-application at all. Cheers Joern
