As a newcomer to Lyx and to LaTex, I have a rather simple question
that is so far rather aggravating. Today, I wrote a letter using the
letter style template that shipped with Lyx (1.3.7 for Kubuntu Linux,
with teTeX also installed).

This was a business letter--and of course the template has an inside
address for the recipient. However, try as I might, I could *not* get
it to print the inside address at all. It was missing from the DVI
view and from all printable views (the various PostScript and PDF
options).

I trust there was something I should have known how to find and
adjust--but it doesn't seem to be part of the document properties
settings or paragraph properties settings either. I presume it must be
in the laTeX code?

Thanks for any kind words you can give to point me in the right
direction! I am buried in the various document files--but so far, this
appears to be missing from the Lyx User Guide, anyway.

Another question, if I may--the letter style defaults to justified
text--yet the right margin was anything but completely uniform. I had
to put discretionary hyphens a few places--no big deal, really--but in
other places the right was simply a bit ragged. Since TeX is a
typesetting language, I suspect I have something set up wrong. Any
pointers as to where to begin to look?

Again, thanks very kindly for any suggestions you might be able to
give. From what I have seen thus far, I intend to stick with it and to
continue to climb the learning curve. I can already see where it
should pay off very shortly!
