Hello, At least in the biological sciences, most journals can't accept LaTeX, and so it's important for us to be able to export to RTF format for final submission of papers. In LyX 1.5.0beta3 (and also in the 1.4 series), exporting to RTF works well with a notable exception: super- and subscripts in text. The reason for this is that these text superscripts are handled as $^\text{some text}$, and latex2rtf doesn't recognize the \text command. Consequently, the super and subscripts simply get omitted, which is a problem especially in papers that are heavy on chemical formulas...
However, latex2rtf does handle \textsuperscript and \textsubscript correctly. Would it be possible to have LyX implement things using these commands instead of using the math-mode commands? An example document is attached. Under LyX 1.5.0beta3, one simply needs to export as Rich Text Format and then open the file with OpenOffice to see what I'm talking about. Best, --Tim
