Greetings:
In my attempts to prove to my fellow man that LyX is
the answer for our document writing and desktop
publishing, I have been given another task to prove
that Lyx is the "one true way."
I am trying to write a grant proposal from a large
non-profit organization to a foundation. They have
given me the last proposal and challenged me to "make
it so Number One".
My first thought is to ask the group if anyone knows
of a document class layout that I can slurp up to use
as my starting point. I did a GOOGLE search and the
few that I found listed as grant proposals written by
Lyx were all too old to retrieve. If anyone has
something they would recommend I would be glad to have
a look.
I will have several very specific things to put into
the document:
--Screen shots from the web (I was going to use a neat
little tool called "xsnap" to grap the images I want
and insert as figures).
--"FloatNotes" with clickable links in pdf format with
a nifty click arrow.
I have about a week to put this all together as the
proposal is due the first week of July (nothing like a
deadline to make one perky).
If I can prove to them that we can be free of Windows
and Abode, and that open source is not just the best
way but the right way, then I can help wean the
computers here from the evils of M$.
Thanks in advance to the group.
