 I agree wholeheartedly.  In fact, LyX 2.0.5.1 under Windows XT does
 tell me (right in the list) that the font was not installed,
 but the same version of Lyx under Lubuntu 12.10 64 bits omits this
 useful note.  Both systems run TexLive 2012.
 Since under (L)ubuntu the tlmgr (the package manager for TexLive) is not
 normally available, and since URWPalladio does not appear in the ubuntu
 repositories, I could not use it.

Here, with LyX 2.0 under Debian/testing, I see URWPalladio only listed
when clicking the non TeX fonts button (i.e. for use with Lua- or XeTeX
engines). URWPalladio is installed system-wide by ghostscript, so it should
work with XeTeX/LuaTeX.

I don't think that there is a separate entry for URWPalladio under the
TeX fonts - the TeX version is available as Palatino using the
mathptmx LaTeX package.

 You might try inserting a different font spec;

 which refers to
 \textgreek{a} etc
 (an upright alpha)

This is a *text* alpha, not necessarily upright but changing shape like any
other text (e.g. italic in case of \emph{RevErb\textgreek{b}}).

The \textgreek command uses TeX fonts in the LGR font encoding. However,
it seems you do not have installed support for Greek text, as even the
fallback Computer Modern does not support this font encoding.
Depending on your OS and LaTeX distribution, you will need to install some
package(s) to support Greek text first (texlive-lang-greek with Debian).

 I had changed in document settingsfonts all to default because of

 \usepackage{tgpagella}

 is tgpagella not able to handle upright greek?

AFAIK, there are some greek letters in the OTF version of TG Pagella.
However, as

* LGR is no official LaTeX font encoding and
* the TeX Gyre fonts are missing most accented Greek letters

there is no support for Greek with TeX Gyre fonts under 8-bit TeX engines.

 and what different font spec would be recommendable to handle it?

Options are:

* use non-TeX fonts with XeTeX or LuaTeX

* install support for Greek text as well as suitable Greek TeX fonts
  e.g. GFS Didot
  (http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/gfsdidot.html) and set
  up a substitute font for the LGR encding.
  
  The substitutefont package may help here.

Re: Palatino linotype in Lyx

Wolfgang,
If you are in Windows, you can use the tlmgr (the Texlive package
manager) to install support for Greek.
If you are in Linux (as I am), you can use the Linux package manager
(since I use (L)ubuntu, for me this is synaptic)--
search on texlive in synaptic and you'll see something like:
texlive-lang-greek. Install it and everything will be nice.

Certainly.  On an individual matrix, click on the column you want to 
change, then go to the Edit menu  Rows  Columns and change from center 
to right for the column where your cursor was.


If you have to do this for several matrices, what I would do would be to 
do a search and replace for the appropriate string on the *.lyx file, 
using an editor.  This is not the advised way, but it is quick when it 
works.  Before doing something like this, though, do make a backup copy

Vector Fonts for Russian-English LyX document

[leonid baranov]

I am typesetting a LyX document with a liberal mix
of English and Russian.

No matter what I try, a LyX command View[PDF(latex)]
produces pixeled bitmapped fonts in PDF.

Please, help by walking me through a FULL sequence of
steps to ensure VECTOR fonts for both Russian and English. 

Details:


Platform:
 LyX 2.0.5
 MiKTeX 2.9
 Windows 7 64 bit

Here is a sample of plain Latex input file imported into LyX:

\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage[T1,T2A]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
%\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
%\usepackage[russian,english]{babel}
\begin{document}
Russian writing (русское письмо) 
\end{document}

Following your threads about Cyrillic\Russian vector fonts,
I have installed a 'cm-super' package from CTAN, using MiKTeX's
package manager (included with the MiKTeX distribution).

But I am not sure whether LyX/MiKTeX sees this package.
I tried to force LyX to use T1 fontencoding only,
without T2A (a commented line above). But that leads
to a latex errmsg: 

   Command \cyrr unavailable in encoding T1.

Using 'babel' (commented out above) didn't help either.
Nor View[PDF(lualatex)] could help. 
Nor \foreignlanguage{russian}{} or \selectlanguage{russian}{}.

1. What did I miss?
2. How do I verify that Russian vector fonts are properly installed
   and available? I not, then how should I install them?
3. Should I have added some further commands into preamble
   and/or document body?

Thank you for your time

Caption-Figure Alignment

[Moco]

Can anyone show me how to make caption and figure in a figure plot vertically 
aligned? 
For now, it seems that the caption is left-adjusted while the the figure 
is right-adjusted. I can partially manually fix this (either change the left-
bottom value, or use minipage and the width setting).
 Still, I can never adjust 
the figure to the left, and the current way of fixing is quite laborous.

 You might try inserting a different font spec;
 e.g., type `I\fontsame font id=substitute font name'.

 which refers to
 \textgreek{a} etc
 (an upright alpha)

This is a *text* alpha, not necessarily upright but changing shape like any
other text (e.g. italic in case of \emph{RevErb\textgreek{b}}).

The \textgreek command uses TeX fonts in the LGR font encoding. However,
it seems you do not have installed support for Greek text, as even the
fallback Computer Modern does not support this font encoding.
Depending on your OS and LaTeX distribution, you will need to install some
package(s) to support Greek text first (texlive-lang-greek with Debian).

 I had changed in document settingsfonts all to default because of
 using 
 \usepackage{tgpagella}

 is tgpagella not able to handle upright greek?

AFAIK, there are some greek letters in the OTF version of TG Pagella.
However, as

* LGR is no official LaTeX font encoding and
* the TeX Gyre fonts are missing most accented Greek letters

there is no support for Greek with TeX Gyre fonts under 8-bit TeX engines.

 and what different font spec would be recommendable to handle it?

Options are:

* use non-TeX fonts with XeTeX or LuaTeX

* install support for Greek text as well as suitable Greek TeX fonts
  e.g. GFS Didot

Re: Palatino linotype in Lyx

Wolfgang,
If you are in Windows, you can use the tlmgr (the Texlive package
manager) to install support for Greek.
If you are in Linux (as I am), you can use the Linux package manager
(since I use (L)ubuntu, for me this is synaptic)--
search on texlive in synaptic and you'll see something like:
texlive-lang-greek. Install it and everything will be nice.

Certainly.  On an individual matrix, click on the column you want to 
change, then go to the Edit menu  Rows  Columns and change from center 
to right for the column where your cursor was.


If you have to do this for several matrices, what I would do would be to 
do a search and replace for the appropriate string on the *.lyx file, 
using an editor.  This is not the advised way, but it is quick when it

Vector Fonts for Russian-English LyX document

[leonid baranov]

I am typesetting a LyX document with a liberal mix
of English and Russian.

No matter what I try, a LyX command View[PDF(latex)]
produces pixeled bitmapped fonts in PDF.

Please, help by walking me through a FULL sequence of
steps to ensure VECTOR fonts for both Russian and English. 

Details:


Platform:
 LyX 2.0.5
 MiKTeX 2.9
 Windows 7 64 bit

Here is a sample of plain Latex input file imported into LyX:

\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage[T1,T2A]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
%\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
%\usepackage[russian,english]{babel}
\begin{document}
Russian writing (русское письмо) 
\end{document}

Following your threads about Cyrillic\Russian vector fonts,
I have installed a 'cm-super' package from CTAN, using MiKTeX's
package manager (included with the MiKTeX distribution).

But I am not sure whether LyX/MiKTeX sees this package.
I tried to force LyX to use T1 fontencoding only,
without T2A (a commented line above). But that leads
to a latex errmsg: 

   Command \cyrr unavailable in encoding T1.

Using 'babel' (commented out above) didn't help either.
Nor View[PDF(lualatex)] could help. 
Nor \foreignlanguage{russian}{} or \selectlanguage{russian}{}.

1. What did I miss?
2. How do I verify that Russian vector fonts are properly installed
   and available? I not, then how should I install them?
3. Should I have added some further commands into preamble
   and/or document body?

Thank you for your time

Caption-Figure Alignment

[Moco]

Can anyone show me how to make caption and figure in a figure plot vertically 
aligned? 
For now, it seems that the caption is left-adjusted while the the figure 
is right-adjusted. I can partially manually fix this (either change the left-
bottom value, or use minipage and the width setting).
 Still, I can never adjust 
the figure to the left, and the current way of fixing is quite laborous.

Here, with LyX 2.0 under Debian/testing, I see URWPalladio only listed
when clicking the "non TeX fonts" button (i.e. for use with Lua- or XeTeX

This is a *text* alpha, not necessarily upright but changing shape like any

The \textgreek command uses TeX fonts in the "LGR" font encoding. However,
it seems you do not have installed support for Greek text, as even the
fallback Computer Modern does not support this font encoding.
Depending on your OS and LaTeX distribution, you will need to install some
package(s) to support Greek text first (texlive-lang-greek with Debian).

AFAIK, there are some greek letters in the OTF version of TG Pagella.
However, as

* LGR is no "official" LaTeX font encoding and
* the TeX Gyre fonts are missing most accented Greek letters

there is no support for Greek with TeX Gyre fonts under 8-bit TeX engines.

> and what different font spec would be recommendable to handle it?

Options are:

* use "non-TeX fonts" with XeTeX or LuaTeX

* install support for Greek text as well as suitable Greek TeX fonts
  e.g. GFS Didot
  (http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/gfsdidot.html) and set
  up a substitute font for the LGR encding.
  
  The "substitutefont" package may help here.
  http://www.ctan.org/pkg/substitutefont
  
  Example: Palatino with the standard package `mathpazo` for Latin and 
  GFS Didot

Hi John!
I deeply search into my problem and find out that 
by adding the line \setcounter{secnumdepth}{3} in the preamble solves the 
problem of no section in TOC. But I have no good results in adding some 
pictures 
in front page, I have solved this by making the front in another document and 
forgoting the cover in tufte.
 
HTH for anyone with the same issue

Wolfgang,
If you are in Windows, you can use the tlmgr (the Texlive package
manager) to install support for Greek.
If you are in Linux (as I am), you can use the Linux package manager
(since I use (L)ubuntu, for me this is synaptic)--
search on texlive in synaptic and you'll see something like:
texlive-lang-greek.  Install it and everything will be nice.

Thanks, Ehud, for the feedback,

but where is this done? In the preamble? and how? (\usepackage ...?)
or in 
Document settings > Language?
There I have selected for Encoding
Language German
which is the Language I use in this document

and played around with
language default, other, language package 
(greek, babel, utf8 ..)
but got errors 

Or is it done just before the Greek symbols (which occur only at a few 
occassions in the document)?

An alternative is TeX Gyre Pagella, also a Palatino clone, which you can
call by
\usepackage{tgpagella}

in the preamble.

Hallo,

using \usepackage{tgpagella} I get the following error message:
Font LGR/cmr/m/n/10.95=grmn1095 at 10.95pt not loadable: Metric (TFM)
file no
Font LGR/qpl/m/n/10.95=grmn1095 at 10.95pt not loadable: Metric (TFM)

and the following description of it:
 Dbp, Ror\textgreek{g}
, RevErb\textgreek{a}, RevErb\textgreek{b},
Dec1...
I wasn't able to read the size data for this font,
so I will ignore the font specification.
[Wizards can fix TFM files using TFtoPL/PLtoTF.]
You might try inserting a different font spec;
e.g., type `I\font='.

which refers to
\textgreek{a} etc
(an upright alpha)

I had changed in document settings>fonts all to default because of
using
\usepackage{tgpagella}

is tgpagella not able to handle upright greek?

and what different font spec would be recommendable to handle it?

Again, I agree that it SHOULD work, since it seems to be installed

the urwpalladio font without any problem.  
However, when I click: View(other format)/pdf(Luatex), I get a
"font-not-found" error.  
If, instead of choosing URWpalladio I select texgyrepagella,
everything works just fine.  
So for some mysterious reason, Latex fails to find the urwpalladio,
but does find the texgyrepagella. 
I think it just shows how little I know about the way Latex manages
the fonts on the system.
BTW-- I ran texhash just to make sure the database was updated.

I agree wholeheartedly.  In fact, LyX 2.0.5.1 under Windows XT does
tell me (right in the list) that the font was not installed,
but the same version of Lyx under Lubuntu 12.10 64 bits omits this
useful note.  Both systems run TexLive 2012.
Since under (L)ubuntu the tlmgr (the package manager for TexLive) is not
normally available, and since URWPalladio does not appear in the ubuntu
repositories, I could not use it.

  
  
Here, with LyX 2.0 under Debian/testing, I see URWPalladio only listed
when clicking the "non TeX fonts" button (i.e. for use with Lua- or XeTeX
engines). URWPalladio is installed system-wide by ghostscript, so it should
work with XeTeX/LuaTeX.

I don't think that there is a separate entry for URWPalladio under the
TeX fonts - the TeX version is available as "Palatino" using the
"mathptmx" LaTeX package.

editing a matrix

[Bob Alvarez]

Section 4 of the Lyx Detailed Math manual describes how to set a Matrix
characteristics when I create it.

What if I change my mind? Is there any way to edit the Matrix?

In particular, how do I change the horizontal alignment? For example, go
from  to rrcc.

Certainly.  On an individual matrix, click on the column you want to 
change, then go to the Edit menu > Rows & Columns and change from center 
to right for the column where your cursor was.


If you have to do this for several matrices, what I would do would be to 
do a search and replace for the appropriate string on the *.lyx file, 
using an editor.  This is not the "advised" way, but it is quick when it 
works.  Before doing something like this, though, do make a backup copy 
of the file...

Yes,

Greg, I'm not fully understanding what you currently get and what you
want, so an minimal case example LyX file and its resulting PDF would be
excellent.

Meanwhile, I once solved what sounds like the opposite problem, here:

This article might give you some ideas on how to solve *your* problem.

How about XeTeX?

I think it is just Lua(La)TeX that fails. And this may be a known problem
or something to do with your setup or ... -- I don't think LyX should be
blamed (at least if it works with XeTeX) because differentiating between
system fonts that work with XeTeX and not LuaTeX is overkill. Rather this
should be fixed on the LuaTeX side.

I don't think this helps with LuaTeX font problems. AFAIK, there is a 
separate LuaTeX font database but I did not dive into LuaTeX yet.

Vector Fonts for Russian-English LyX document

[leonid baranov]

I am typesetting a LyX document with a liberal mix
of English and Russian.

No matter what I try, a LyX command "View[PDF(latex)]"
produces pixeled bitmapped fonts in PDF.

Please, help by walking me through a FULL sequence of
steps to ensure VECTOR fonts for both Russian and English. 

Details:


Platform:
 LyX 2.0.5
 MiKTeX 2.9
 Windows 7 64 bit

Here is a sample of plain Latex input file imported into LyX:

\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage[T1,T2A]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
%\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
%\usepackage[russian,english]{babel}
\begin{document}
Russian writing (русское письмо) 
\end{document}

Following your threads about Cyrillic\Russian vector fonts,
I have installed a 'cm-super' package from CTAN, using MiKTeX's
package manager (included with the MiKTeX distribution).

But I am not sure whether LyX/MiKTeX "sees" this package.
I tried to "force" LyX to use T1 fontencoding only,
without T2A (a commented line above). But that leads
to a latex errmsg: 

   Command \cyrr unavailable in encoding T1.

Using 'babel' (commented out above) didn't help either.
Nor "View[PDF(lualatex)]" could help. 
Nor "\foreignlanguage{russian}{}" or "\selectlanguage{russian}{}".

1. What did I miss?
2. How do I verify that Russian vector fonts are properly installed
   and available? I not, then how should I install them?
3. Should I have added some further commands into preamble
   and/or document body?

Thank you for your time

Caption-Figure Alignment

[Moco]

Can anyone show me how to make caption and figure in a figure plot vertically 
aligned? 
For now, it seems that the caption is left-adjusted while the the figure 
is right-adjusted. I can partially manually fix this (either change the left-
bottom value, or use minipage and the width setting).
 Still, I can never adjust 
the figure to the left, and the current way of fixing is quite laborous.
