I had a similar problem with foiltex and viewing in gv. The problem was intermittent. I haven't used foiltex for about 6 months, but every so often, a landscape page or pages would have no left side margin. I never was able to resolve the problem. I was able to go into the postscript code and manually fix it (which is a pain). It appears that some how the margin instructions on some landscape pages get mangled when using foiltex when creating the postscript. This was with LyX 1.1.6 or earlier. I haven't used foiltex with 1.2.1 but it appears from what you are saying there is still a problem.

Hi all,
I created some foils with the foiltex package and pdflatex in landscape
format. Now I got problems to print them with lyx or acrobat reader.
The page margins are not correct when I print the slides with acroread.
(Left= 4cm, right=.5 cm and I want to have Left=2cm, right=2cm).
When I try to print it with lyx all the slides are printed in portrait
mode not in landscape mode. My document settings are: foiltex,
landscape and my printer driver is dvips. I read the manual but did not
found something specific for my problem.
Where or how can I adjust pdflatex so that I can print with the correct
margins and how can I set up lyx to print in landcape mode?
Thank you!
Thorsten
