So far I'm pleased with how lyx shortens the learning curve for using latex.
However, I have several problems converting the document into either rtf or an
openoffice document ( publisher's demanding .doc instead of latex or pdf).
1. Converting to .rtf :
When I use natbib , numerical option, with sort&compress option, citation
format [#ID}, I get an rtf file which does not have any citations in the file.
2. When using the converter to an opendocument:
Everything converts including the bibliography, however, the references
are all running together instead of each reference starting a separate line (
e,g:
1.
Vellios F, Bacz JM, Shumacker HB. Lipoblastomatosis: A tumor of fetal
fat different from hibernoma. Report of a case, with observations of
embryogenesis of human adipose tissue. Am J Pathol.
1958;34:1149–1159. 2. Chung EB, Enzinger FM. Benign
lipoblastomatosis. An analysis of 35 cases. Cancer. 1973
Aug;32(2):482–492. 3. Chen Z, Coffin CM, Scott S, Meloni-Ehrig A,
Shepard R, Issa B, et al. Evidence by spectral karyotyping that
8q11.2 is nonrandomly involved in lipoblastoma. J Mol Diagn. 2000
May;2(2):73–77.
Are there any workarounds to these problems?
Lyx : 1.5.5.1 and Ubuntu linux 8.04
