Hi,
I am trying to view the user's guide in version 1.5.3 on windows. When I try
to view it using any method (dvi, pdf, ps) it says:
LaTeX Error: File `floatflt.sty' not found.
Showing more details for that error it says:
\usepackage
{varioref}
*** (cannot \read from terminal in nonstop modes)
I tried installing that package using MiKTeX 2.7 package browser, but this
package is not there. So I found it on CTAN and followed the directions for
unpacking the floatflt.sty file. I copied the floatflt.sty file into a
directory at C:/Program Files/MiKTeX 2.7/tex/latex/floatflt/floatflt.sty
Then I reloaded LyX and verified that it could find that style by going to the
menu Tools->TeX Information and showing the "Latex Styles" from the dropdown.
Yep, LyX sees the new style file. But I still get the same error.
I also ran Reconfigure (and restarted lyx) which seemed to download a bunch of
packages, but didn't help.
Any suggestions? This has taken me all day :).
Maybe a better question is why does the User Guide use this package when
MiKTeX has a much newer package called float?
THanks for any help,
-Tom
