This thread is making me feel too stupid. I don't really care how pdf
output gets created, I'm happy to use any of the methods you recommend.
In fact, sometimes I can't make it work in lyx but the script "tex2pdf"
does what I need. But I now notice it calls pdflatex, and so the
pstricks do not display.
I have Paul's example of a pstrick in lyx. If I want to process that
through pdflatex, you say I need ps4pdf. But I can't understand how it
is supposed to work. I downloaded ps4pdf.sty and the script ps4pdf, put
the former in my latex distro (ran texhash) and put the script in the
path (after making it executable).
Now, what magical incantation is needed to take the lyx doc with the
pstricks in it into pdflatex?
- using View->PDF, which should run latex->dvips->ps2pdf
this is the easiest way to get everything as pdf. Not
possible is microtyping and breakable links. If you need
this, then the other ways maybe interesting to you. If
not, then always use this way.
