Thanks. This makes it much easier to troubleshoot. > When i try to see a preview it gives me several LaTeX error.

In LyX you would go with the menu to: Document > Settings > Document Class And then insert your choice in the "custom" field under "Class options". > ANDÂ > > > LaTeX Error: Option clash for package inputenc. > > The package inputenc has already been loaded with options: > [latin1] > There has now been an attempt to load it with options > [latin9] > Adding the global options: > latin1,latin9 > to your \documentclass declaration may fix this. > Try typing <return> to proceed. > > > Any hint on that ? This is because liuthesis requires a specific input encoding. Instruct LyX to obey this by going to: Document > Settings > Language and set the Encoding to "Other: Western European (ISO 8859-1)" > I have several LateX file inside that package folder. Do i have to edit any one of them to get it functional? In principle, no, you don't have to edit any tex file. You should consult liuthesis.pdf; it seems to give a good description of your LaTeX class. Some non-standard commands, such as \thesisDate, can be inputed in LyX inside a TeX box (Insert > TeX Code). If you feel adventurous, you can modify your layout file to make LyX understand these commands without the use of TeX Code. For that, see LyX's Help > Customization. Eventually, if you implement all the features of the TeX class into the LyX layout, you might want to submit your layout file for inclusion with the liuthesis.zip distribution. > > > Regards > Sajjad > Cheers, Julien
