A couple of questions for the Hebrew LyXers:
I installed LyX on a new vista desktop (by modifying the instructions
here: http://www.ma.huji.ac.il/~sameti/tex/lyxhebrew.html to work on Vista.)
1. How do I get proper quotation marks? When I input the output shows
single quotation marks.
2.
Check out the Torino theme (http://www.barisione.org/blog.html/p=104)
and its documentation.
I've seen this before in RC2.

After using this installer, LyX can't find imagemagick.
All my LyX files, images, etc are stored at work on a network folder
mapped on a windows box to X:\. And so my files contain code such as:

How about Xcolor and:

Nothing wrong with New Century Schoolbook, but take a look at Minion for
book work. It is easy on the eyes, economical, and the LaTeX package
support is excellent, with small caps and choice of oldstyle or lining
figures, and more. It's already on your computer in OpenType, but for
publishing
Palatino is a good face, too. It also works well with the microtype
package as does Minion. I should mention that Minion also has superb
math and Greek, which makes it suitable for scholarly and technical work.
