The solution is to remove the \pagebreak. I just don't know if it causes
problems (I imagine it was added for a reason).

The solution is to remove the \pagebreak. I just don't know if it causes
problems (I imagine it was added for a reason).

I think the examples are in a good state. Hopefully someone else can +1
the inclusion into LyX and then we can go forward from there.

One other minor issue: there is an empty page at the end of both .lyx
files. The empty page goes away if I remove the "\pagebreak" that is in
ERT at the end. Is there a reason to have that?

sorry, i don't know the solution.

Looks good, thanks! A minor issue: the cases do not much. In LyX it is
included as "logo.svg" but the filename is "Logo.svg". On Linux (or more
specifically, any file system that is case sensitive) this means the
file is not found. We should change one or the other.

Thanks.

One other minor issue: there is an empty page at the end of both .lyx
files. The empty page goes away if I remove the "\pagebreak" that is in
ERT at the end. Is there a reason to have that?

I think you are right that using a csv is better than adr (I had never
heard of adr so I'm not surprised that they are ancient). If we add your
examples I think we should reference serial letter, and in serial letter
we should reference your example.

I'm personally convinced that your example is good to add (but we should
see what others think). But we might want to clean it up a bit if we can
reduce the ERT. Can you attach the newest version of your English and
Arabic example files? Do you get any errors when you compile either of
them?

Thanks for your time on helping with this!

The error come from adding $ in the string like:
$\subject$
I deleted $ from the cert_ar.lyx

- in lyx examples there are 3 files (serial_letter), this files import the
data from adr file, adr files was dead after windows 95, i sent my examples
(cert_ar and cert_en) to learn how we can import data from csv (csv new
data file not like adr file).
I hope you know now why i write this examples.

For the English version, I now get:

Missing character: There is no U in font
KacstDecorative/OT:mapping=tex-text;ma

And for the Arabic version:

Missing character: There is no 1 in font
KacstDecorative/OT:script=arab;languag

Missing character: There is no 2 in font
KacstDecorative/OT:script=arab;languag

etc.

You don't get any errors?

This is nice!

When I compile the Arabic version, I get the following errors:

Missing character: There is no ا in font cmmi10!
and there are many such errors.

I do have the fonts Scheherazade installed.

You don't get these errors?

Some additional comments:

- you did not send crown.png. Do you have the rights to the image? (i.e.
  can we include it?) if not, we can find an image that is free to use.

- there is a fair amount of ERT. I think we can reduce this.
