Hello!

I'v encountered one problem when trying to use booklet printing with
Lyx.

I want to print 2 A5 pages from my book on one A4 paper.

When I was using psbook & psnup utility, the ouput on A4 was always
shifted up & therefore cut off.

Today, however, I discovered that the problem is not in psbook & psnup,
but in the postscript output itself.

When I use print dialog from Lyx to print to file, the command is:
dvips -o "file.ps" file.dvi &
which results in corrupted ps file.

When using option, View Postscript in Lyx, the command is
dvips -o file.ps_tmp -t a5 file.dvi
which gives correct ps file that can be later manipulated with psbook &
psnup.

I also looked in my /etc/texmf/dvips/config.ps file and added
definition for A5 format.

Please, if someone can enlighten me what to change in my setup to get
correct ps file after using print to file option, since using temporary
files is not so convenient.

I assume I have to change my lyxrc, but I do not watn to screw
anything.
Thanks for any info.
Sincerely,
Sasa
p.s. Otherwise, I'm so impressed with the Lyx.
