this works, however, the result is not the correct symbol for reel number R.
This is why I had a deeper look at dsfont.sty proposed here earlier.
This package produces the correct results.
The problem is, that I cannot install this package correctly, because I do not
have access to the latex installation.
So I could not do step 4 of the installation procedure.
4. Move the files to their destination.
The files are and are needed by
*.tfm TeX font metric files TeX
*.fd font defintions TeX
*.sty style files TeX
*.mf Metafont sources Metafont
So I copied the files to the directory where the lyx source is.
When I export to LATEX and call latex, then it works fine.
>From LyX I get error messages:
MakeTeXTFM: 'mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; scrollmode; input dsrom10' failed to make
dsrom10.tfm.
kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log.
kpathsea: Running MakeTeXTFM dsrom8.tfm
MakeTeXTFM: Running mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; scrollmode; input dsrom8
This is METAFONT, Version 2.718 (C version 6.1)
kpathsea: Running MakeTeXMF dsrom8.mf
! I can't find file `dsrom8.mf'.
<*> ...e:=ljfour; mag:=1; scrollmode; input dsrom8
Please type another input file name:
! Emergency stop.
<*> ...e:=ljfour; mag:=1; scrollmode; input dsrom8
The problem seems to be, that LyX calls metafont automatically despite the
fonts are already there.
Any ideas how I could solve the problem?
Thanks,
