Similar to that I planned to redirect typewriter font to literal. But where the meaning seems obvious. Certainly we can define Small Caps to mean filename, but this would be only a hack. Instead of adding this kind of hacks I would prefer to work in the full solution, as it is easier to maintain in the long term. And the proper fix is to add support for styles in lyx. If you still want to make this work, I can give some tips where to look for. Actually you only need to change the code in one function, so it shouldn't be too hard. Now if you want to fake some styles we can use the colours, that clearly don't have any counterparts in docbook and use them for different styles. But this only shows how much we need real user defined styles in lyx. > I would be grateful for any suggestions. I hope this helps, > Thanks, > > Chris. -- Jos� Ab�lio
