Uwe Stöhr is working on a full installer that will install everything, but
you are right, the other one should provide a link to the fonts.
I will tell my friend to wait for this installer is available
2- pdf viewing is screwed. If I change the preferences for the pdf
viewer so that acrobat is used, and it works when I apply it, but this
does not work anymore after I close and reopen LyX. The preference file
seems to be saved fine, but LyX complains about not finding the program,
because there is a space in the path to acrobat (it cannot find the file
"C:\program"). I have entered the path within double quotes. spaces in
filenames and paths are 100% legitimate in linux and windows and very
common on Windows. I have not yet found a proper solution, so if
somenone has one ... (*)
Known bug: http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1940
indeed :)
(*) I see a solution, but it looks ugly: adding the path for acrobat to
the PATH variable, and just using the file name without path.
You can also do this from within LyX so that you don't need to set it
systemwide. There is a setting Path Prefix (or similar, forgot the exact
wording) somewhere in the preferences (only on windows).
In the preference files, there is a \path_prefix sting which looks like
it. After adding the adobe reader directory to it, I can view my pdfs.
Thanks,
Best regards,
