Hi all, I'm trying to typeset my novel, that I want to publish soon. I have started using lyx because it hides most of the technical stuff, so I can concentrate on the writing.
But I'm having quite some trouble to get things looking right, things I thought were handled automatically. First of all, my TOC remains empty. As I understood, I just had to do 'Insert -> list/TOC -> Table of contents. I do use the correct paragraph types, Part, Chapter, section, subsection etc... so I thought the TOC would be generated automatically when viewing the pdf, but it does not. Secondly, a novel is rarely printed on A4, and the company I'd like to ask to print my book gives a discount on printing on A5 (printing on demand service) so I thought changing the document setting page size from A4 to A5. This obviously has a big influence on the flow of the text. My language is Dutch, and hyphenation is horrible. I do have texlive-lang-dutch installed. Also, words that can be split sometimes are not, which results in many, many overfull \hbox (from LaTeX Log). The margins are not followed. What can I do about these problems? I'm using Linux Mint11, if that extra information can help. grtz, Bart http://www.bartart3d.be/
