Hello Richard,
sorry for my long silence - I didn't resolve the issues completely, but I got
over an important hurdle.
I exported my .lyx-file to a .tex-file. This was the only way, I could get in
the "\setlength\parindent{0.7cm}" option. It was quite hard for me because
the German umlaut didn't get translated properly. I found out that I had to
change the encoding to utf8 to make it work.
I also added:
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}
The next point I need to solve is the header issue:
* page number: font size 12
* left pages: chapter title (right-aligned) in small capitals and font size 10
* right pages: subchapter title (left-aligned) in small capitals and font size
10
header not on first page of chapter
At present I get both chapter and subchapter titles in the header so that they
overwrite each other and are unreadable. The page number is in the footer and
should go up to the header.
A second point is the font size (12 and solved ;-) but the line distance
should be 14 points. How do I get that?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Markus
Just is case it may help, here is my header of the .tex file:
