On a system set up for German, it comes in German automatically (e.g. here at my box), so I have defined the alias: alias lyx-en="LANG=en_GB; lyx" in my .bashrc file for an English speaking lyx. To force a German interface (in UNIX), set the LANG variable to "de_DE", say, before starting lyx: LANG=de_DE; lyx > Anything else I should know (such as support for umlaughts or default page > sizes or default units)? This very much depends on the context: * Is there a German keyboard * What paper is used in the printer? ... Also, have a look at Help>Customization GM
