You can either use latex2rtf or ltx2rtf (ftp://ftp.lps.u-psud.fr/pub/ltx2rtf/) I did some testing and ltx2rtf seems to work better. Note that if your purpose is to create a file that is readable by MSWord, you can just create a HTML file. You loose the structure this way, every header is translated in the same style (among other things). The import/export from MSWord towards HTML has destructive features: - exporting translates styles as font instructions instead of HTML tags, - importing doesn't use styles Some parts are well translated however (bibliography, figure, tables) so the hacking of the structure can be done quickly (if needed). For formulas the only way I know is ltx2rtf. If you have figures, don't forget to « break the links » (which means that you put the images in the document instead of kkeping them as links, following the same logic as « strt » for « stop » :-), otherwise you document cannot be moved without loosing them. -- Jean-Pierre

Re: LyX does not run BibTex
Hi Claus,
I'm running MikTex 2.0up1 and it seems to run fine manually.
It looks like LyX doesn't sense my bibliography file for some reason,
as it is not listed in the .dep file.
Here is also the beginning and the end of my .tex file from the tmp-directory:
\batchmode

\def\input@path{{Z:/LyxDocs/}}

\begin{document}

\bibliography{Z:/LyxDocs/photonics}

which looks allright to me... or does it?
If there is a line \def\input@path{{Z:/LyxDocs/}}, maybe the full path is
not necessary
in the \bibliography{Z:/LyxDocs/photonics}, just as it doesn't show up in
the lines
that include eps figures (only the filename).

Paragraph Spacing
Hello All: I am using the Document Class Article and would like to change spacing between paragraphs universally to have an extra space between paragraphs. According to the Lyx manual, I should have the SETSPACE package, which I put into the preamble as: \usepackage setspace Then I went to LAYOUT-DOCUMENT and changed Default Skip to BigSkip but it did not change anything when I viewed in DVI. This would seem to be something I could do document-wide rather than reverting to using the Control space after every paragraph. Help?!?! I AM getting better at this, really I am.

Re: [pdftex] Re: tex2pdf 2.1 released
For people interested in script hacking. I wrote altpdftex, a sh script that uses tex-dvips-ps2pdf (or dvips-ps2pdf on dvi files). It can be linked symbolically to altpdflatex, altpdfetex, altpdfelatex and will do the other formats. altpdftex writes internmediary results in a temporary directory, minimizing the chances files are overwritten (a thing that has bitten be badly at one time). Mainly written for the same reason: old tex code with eps inclusions and ps tricks. There is another benefit for me. Sometimes pdftex produces pdf that, when viewed on my Mac OS X system and printed from there refuses to print on my NeXT printer. The same file through altpdflatex prints fine. The reason is unknown to me, but an alternative is nice to have. altpdftex can be found as ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/comp/macosx/tex- gs/altpdftex Dependencies: TeX dvips ghostscript (ps2pdf) SH On Monday, June 11, 2001, at 12:43 AM, Bryan J.

LyX was there thanx to good people like yourselves. That was late 1998, early 1999 and I haven't gone back either! ;-PPP ] First off, I just downloaded tex2pdf after getting frustrated with EPS images in my LyX document. I had previously tried PS export w/ps2pdf to get the EPS graphics in, but could figure no way to get the FoilTeX slides to appear landscape in Acroread (they kept coming out as sideways/portrait, and tried editing the PDF manually to no avail -- not good for presentations). This little script did the trick in no time flat -- nice landscape oriented slides, with the EPS graphics and thumbnails, in PDF format (which allows me to do my presentation with _any_ OS). Thank you! As such, I think this script should be a part and/or called in any future version of LyX. Secondly, since I've got the LyX, tex2pdf and pdftex lists all here (note I'm only subscribed to the first), is there any work being done on getting PDF bookmarks implemented in the output? I know this is a quite an additional challenge of just PDF conversion and/or thumbnailing, but I was curious as to what projects or efforts are in place. I'm such an avid LyX user (almost bigot on at least 5 different LUG lists here in Florida ;-), I'm almost to the point if seeing if I could do this manually, and write a program to do it. I'm definately NOT a GUI guy, but I'm fairly good at string manipulation with Perl (and I write system-level/real-time C code for a living in the US defense industry). ;-PPP So, if anyone can point me to any current efforts, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm skimming through some of the on-line PS/PDF documentation (and have in the past to slightly modify PS/PDFs manually).

Basically the idea is to make LyX useable for those who use mostly windows but want LyX to work with, it needs to be simple enough, that is I dont want to tell peoples to install an X-Server on windows or something of the kind. It's easier to give them a CD and let them boot into it. The files can be worked on from their windows hard disk. Ofcourse, if someone knows or already has an X-Server with LyX all ready for installation on Windows in a usual installer format it would be even better. But I seem to rememeber that the free X-Servers are limited in time usage. Both ideas are nice, though I expect your average Windows user would prefer something that could be installed and run under Windows, rather than having to reboot - though you have to reboot so often with Windows, people might not notice ;-) I'm also not sure whether most Win-users could be bothered with configuring X. People who are prepared to wrestle with that kind of stuff are generally already using some flavour of 'nix. A self-extracting, self-installing LyX4Win would be a great idea, and would really get LyX into popular use, I think. As for X-servers, Cygwin's is free, though I don't know if that's as in beer or speech - they seem to have been incorporated into RedHat. See http://cygwin.com/xfree/ Robin

Now look at the .ps file (or the printout)!
The first two lines (Techn. and Department ...) are so close
together the letters almost touch.
Furthermore, the title is formatted as
Pulsed neural networks with
dynamic synapses in speech recognition:
A model motivated by the human
auditory pathway
The distance between the first and second line is much larger than between
the others lines. Lines 2, 3, and 4 almost touch!
What is wrong with my LaTeX? I can't find my mistake!
Please help!

Cross-refs in Structured bibliography
Thanks to your help, I managed to get a structured bibliography done with all the features I need using bibtopic. However, I have two remaining problems: 1) It only works if I run latex/bibtex on the exported tex file manually. From within lyx I just get unresolved references and an empty bibliography. I can't even insert references with the lyx popup but have to put it in ERT. 2) Cross-refs between different bibfiles do not work (they just do not appear). In case bibtopic is not the right package for this (the documantation seems to say so), is there any other way for achiving this? Does anyone has expiriences with multibib which is mentioned in the bibtopic docs? Thanks for your help. Marko

Bolding a Veritcal or Horizontal Line in a Table in Lyx
Hello World: I am nearly done now with this document and doing some minor tweaking (yes, I know, that is what Lyx is supposed to do). I have a table that I rotated 90 degrees to fit on my page. I want to put a BOLD lines -- some vertically and some horizontally -- to divide out the Total sections and headers. I was able to make it happen just using LaTeX to create the table (by repeating \hling\hline at the end of the line I wanted the bold on), but my Lyx barfed it up and I had to redo completely in Lyx. Now, I can't figure out how to get bolding back. I also had a cap on my table to define the columns as a whole (ie., used REGIONS to cap off columns labeled 0, I, II-X) The cap is NOT to go over the first column (defines the rows) and the last column (giving totals). This too was do-able in LaTeX. Are these possible in Lyx? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Michelle Any help would be greatly appreciated. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!?

You need to change the bibliography style (by pressing on the

to one of the styles that comes with harvard, namely agsm, dcu, jmr, etc.

I am creating a presentation using lyx/foiltex and to make my text

You mean that you want ALL text (normal text and math mode) in bold ?
I don't think that this is a good idea, but you can have your own opinion.
Tex and thus lyx are designed to handle the formatting for you which
for the most part is great.
However for slides you need a lot of control over formatting.
In particular you need to know if some text will require an extra
line or an extra slide. If an extra slide is needed I may
rewrite my text or shrink a figure to make it fit.
I prepared several presentations with lyx
(http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~dekelts/slides/)
and this wasn't much of a problem.
Some kind of control so that each slide could have its own page
size parameters. For pages with less data it would be convienient
to shrink the page size.
You can also change the size of the text in the slide by putting a font size
command at the beginning of the slide.
Alternatively there would need to be some
kind of center page command that worked like center paragraph.
Use two \vfill command (and some slide styles center the text automatically,
e.g. seminar).
Re: LyX on a CD
A self-extracting, self-installing LyX4Win would be a great idea, and would really get LyX into popular use, I think. As for X-servers, Cygwin's is free, though I don't know if that's as in beer or speech - they seem to have been incorporated into RedHat. See http://cygwin.com/xfree/ Robin Yes, I know a lot of people who would like to run lyx, but they don't like or don't have the time to switch to linux. And in my opinion getting lyx to work smoothly under windows is a lot of work. It would be really nice and really a big step forward for the popularity of lyx if we could get this done. The problem I had, was to find a suitable x-server, because cygwin only works for win2k I think.

The following code in your LaTeX preamble does most of what

The problem with ps2pdf is that it seems to not preserve the
orientation of my paper. E.g., if I use FoilTeX and landscape for
slides, the PDF will have the paper portrait with the output
sideways. It's fine for printing, but not for presentations.
So I previously used pdftex but it didn't convert the EPS graphics
before output (and lost them in the end result). Hence why the
tex2pdf script was exactly what I needed -- and gives me both
thumbnails and hyperlinks in the PDF. I get everything but the PDF
bookmarks.
So that's all that's left.

You loose the structure this way, every header is translated in the same style (among other things). The import/export from MSWord towards HTML has destructive features: - exporting translates styles as font instructions instead of HTML tags, - importing doesn't use styles Some parts are well translated however (bibliography, figure, tables) so the hacking of the structure can be done quickly (if needed). For formulas the only way I know is ltx2rtf. If you have figures, don't forget to « break the links » (which means that you put the images in the document instead of kkeping them as links, following the same logic as « strt » for « stop » :-), otherwise you document cannot be moved without loosing them. -- Jean-Pierre

Subject: Changing Font size on my rfoot and lfoot text
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Greetings All:
Still busy hacking away on this document and making
progress, but I am at another wall. I want to change
the rfoot and lfoot (not to be confused with the
footers) font size.
I tried this in the preamble:
\rfoot{Page \thepage\\Draft Date: 010611}{8pt}
Try
\rfoot{\small Page \thepage\\Draft Date: 010611}
You may replace \small by \footnotesize, \scriptsize or \tiny
Hope this works, didn't check...

Re: [pdftex] Re: tex2pdf 2.1 released
For people interested in script hacking. I wrote altpdftex, a sh script that uses tex-dvips-ps2pdf (or dvips-ps2pdf on dvi files). It can be linked symbolically to altpdflatex, altpdfetex, altpdfelatex and will do the other formats. altpdftex writes internmediary results in a temporary directory, minimizing the chances files are overwritten (a thing that has bitten be badly at one time). Mainly written for the same reason: old tex code with eps inclusions and ps tricks. There is another benefit for me. Sometimes pdftex produces pdf that, when viewed on my Mac OS X system and printed from there refuses to print on my NeXT printer. The same file through altpdflatex prints fine. The reason is unknown to me, but an alternative is nice to have. altpdftex can be found as ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/comp/macosx/tex- gs/altpdftex Dependencies: TeX dvips ghostscript (ps2pdf) SH On Monday, June 11, 2001, at 12:43 AM, Bryan J.

I had previously tried PS export w/ps2pdf to get the EPS graphics in, but could figure no way to get the FoilTeX slides to appear landscape in Acroread (they kept coming out as sideways/portrait, and tried editing the PDF manually to no avail -- not good for presentations). This little script did the trick in no time flat -- nice landscape oriented slides, with the EPS graphics and thumbnails, in PDF format (which allows me to do my presentation with _any_ OS). Thank you! As such, I think this script should be a part and/or called in any future version of LyX. Secondly, since I've got the LyX, tex2pdf and pdftex lists all here (note I'm only subscribed to the first), is there any work being done on getting PDF bookmarks implemented in the output? I know this is a quite an additional challenge of just PDF conversion and/or thumbnailing, but I was curious as to what projects or efforts are in place. I'm such an avid LyX user (almost bigot on at least 5 different LUG lists here in Florida ;-), I'm almost to the point if seeing if I could do this manually, and write a program to do it. I'm definately NOT a GUI guy, but I'm fairly good at string manipulation with Perl (and I write system-level/real-time C code for a living in the US defense industry). ;-PPP So, if anyone can point me to any current efforts, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm skimming through some of the on-line PS/PDF documentation (and have in the past to slightly modify PS/PDFs manually).

Basically the idea is to make LyX useable for those who use mostly windows but want LyX to work with, it needs to be simple enough, that is I dont want to tell peoples to install an X-Server on windows or something of the kind. It's easier to give them a CD and let them boot into it. The files can be worked on from their windows hard disk. Ofcourse, if someone knows or already has an X-Server with LyX all ready for installation on Windows in a usual installer format it would be even better. But I seem to rememeber that the free X-Servers are limited in time usage. Both ideas are nice, though I expect your average Windows user would prefer something that could be installed and run under Windows, rather than having to reboot - though you have to reboot so often with Windows, people might not notice ;-) I'm also not sure whether most Win-users could be bothered with configuring X. People who are prepared to wrestle with that kind of stuff are generally already using some flavour of 'nix. A self-extracting, self-installing LyX4Win would be a great idea, and would really get LyX into popular use, I think. As for X-servers, Cygwin's is free, though I don't know if that's as in beer or speech - they seem to have been incorporated into RedHat. See http://cygwin.com/xfree/ Robin
problems with harvard.sty (BibTeX/Lyx interaction)

Herbert, I really appreciate all the lucid and useful help you

the original subject of this thread.
Can you suggest a way to learn about some of these variables,
as well as things like \AtBeginDocument{}? I don't know if a
list of such names exists, with brief descriptions---that'd be
really great. But in lieu of a list, could you suggest a pattern

Space between lines (whats wrong with this TeX?)
Hi,
I open a new document: report (koma-script) a4
The only thing I insert (in TeX mode) is:
\begin{center}
{\LARGE {\scshape Technische Universit{\a}t M{\u}nchen} \\
Department of Computer Science}
{\huge \bfseries\sffamily Pulsed neural networks with dynamic synapses in
speech recognition: \\A model motivated by the human auditory pathway}
\end{center}
Now look at the .ps file (or the printout)!
The first two lines (Techn. and Department ...) are so close
together the letters almost touch.
Furthermore, the title is formatted as
Pulsed neural networks with
dynamic synapses in speech recognition:
A model motivated by the human
auditory pathway
The distance between the first and second line is much larger than between
the others lines. Lines 2, 3, and 4 almost touch!
What is wrong with my LaTeX? I can't find my mistake!
Please help!

Cross-refs in Structured bibliography
Thanks to your help, I managed to get a structured bibliography done with all the features I need using bibtopic. However, I have two remaining problems: 1) It only works if I run latex/bibtex on the exported tex file manually. From within lyx I just get unresolved references and an empty bibliography. I can't even insert references with the lyx popup but have to put it in ERT. 2) Cross-refs between different bibfiles do not work (they just do not appear). In case bibtopic is not the right package for this (the documantation seems to say so), is there any other way for achiving this? Does anyone has expiriences with multibib which is mentioned in the bibtopic docs? Thanks for your help. Marko

Bolding a Veritcal or Horizontal Line in a Table in Lyx
Hello World: I am nearly done now with this document and doing some minor tweaking (yes, I know, that is what Lyx is supposed to do). I have a table that I rotated 90 degrees to fit on my page. I want to put a BOLD lines -- some vertically and some horizontally -- to divide out the Total sections and headers. I was able to make it happen just using LaTeX to create the table (by repeating \hling\hline at the end of the line I wanted the bold on), but my Lyx barfed it up and I had to redo completely in Lyx. Now, I can't figure out how to get bolding back. I also had a cap on my table to define the columns as a whole (ie., used REGIONS to cap off columns labeled 0, I, II-X) The cap is NOT to go over the first column (defines the rows) and the last column (giving totals). This too was do-able in LaTeX. Are these possible in Lyx? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Michelle Any help would be greatly appreciated. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!?

You need to change the bibliography style (by pressing on the
Bibtex Generated References inset, and changing the style field)
to one of the styles that comes with harvard, namely agsm, dcu, jmr, etc.

I am creating a presentation using lyx/foiltex and to make my text

in bold as proposed above leads to a number of problems.
You mean that you want ALL text (normal text and math mode) in bold ?
I don't think that this is a good idea, but you can have your own opinion.
Tex and thus lyx are designed to handle the formatting for you which
for the most part is great.
However for slides you need a lot of control over formatting.
In particular you need to know if some text will require an extra
line or an extra slide. If an extra slide is needed I may
rewrite my text or shrink a figure to make it fit.
I prepared several presentations with lyx
(http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~dekelts/slides/)
and this wasn't much of a problem.
Some kind of control so that each slide could have its own page
size parameters. For pages with less data it would be convienient
to shrink the page size.
You can also change the size of the text in the slide by putting a font size
command at the beginning of the slide.
Alternatively there would need to be some
kind of center page command that worked like center paragraph.
Use two \vfill command (and some slide styles center the text automatically,
e.g. seminar).
Re: LyX on a CD
A self-extracting, self-installing LyX4Win would be a great idea, and would really get LyX into popular use, I think. As for X-servers, Cygwin's is free, though I don't know if that's as in beer or speech - they seem to have been incorporated into RedHat. See http://cygwin.com/xfree/ Robin Yes, I know a lot of people who would like to run lyx, but they don't like or don't have the time to switch to linux. And in my opinion getting lyx to work smoothly under windows is a lot of work. It would be really nice and really a big step forward for the popularity of lyx if we could get this done. The problem I had, was to find a suitable x-server, because cygwin only works for win2k I think.

Re: tex2pdf 2.1 released -- appologies for my ignorance
I do PDF bookmarks, hyper-refs, etc. using normal LaTeX + dvips as
well as pdftex.
It works.
The components you have listed should be enough:
[...]
pdfTeX (Web2C 7.3.1) 3.14159-0.13d which is part of RedHat's tetex
1.0.7-15 RPM. I take it that is dated?
No, that's good enough.
The following code in your LaTeX preamble does most of what I want (with
LaTeX - dvips -ps2pdf). You can read the hyperref docs for more info.

Ack, maybe it's time I left my LyX crutch and move to full-up TeX
editing (via GViM or other syntax highlighting editor).
No, I don't think so. ;-) I have the full power of LaTeX *plus* the
convenience of WYSIWYM editing in LyX.
I always
figured I could in-line TeX tags with LyX,
Yes, you can. Just mark it as TeX (or use the LaTeX paragraph format).

I just need hyperref, right? What is the easiest way to install
it in a near-stock RedHat 7.1 full install (just added LyX,
TeTeX-LyX and XForms)?
The following code in your LaTeX preamble does most of what
I want (with LaTeX - dvips -ps2pdf). You can read the
hyperref docs for more info.
The problem with ps2pdf is that it seems to not preserve the
orientation of my paper. E.g., if I use FoilTeX and landscape for
slides, the PDF will have the paper portrait with the output
sideways. It's fine for printing, but not for presentations.
So I previously used pdftex but it didn't convert the EPS graphics
before output (and lost them in the end result). Hence why the
tex2pdf script was exactly what I needed -- and gives me both
thumbnails and hyperlinks in the PDF. I get everything but the PDF
bookmarks.
So that's all that's left.

Yes, you can. Just mark it as TeX (or use the LaTeX

Which I do for \appendix. I'm _far_ from a LyX expert (although
everyone here in the local central/north Florida LUGs think I am --
GASP! -- anyone here in central/north Florida?), and I know even
less of [La]TeX. But I refuse to write anything that doesn't use a
standard, well-documented publication back-end ever again after my
Word 95 to 97 snafus. **

** BTW, I was a contributing author on Samba Unleashed. I found
it humorous that MacMillian made me write in MS Word, but I had to
use a single monospace font and put tags before all my

productivity they could have had by simply creating a LyX template!
With Cygwin now sporting a full X-Server, LyX runs quite well on

You loose the structure this way, every header is translated in the same style (among other things). The import/export from MSWord towards HTML has destructive features: - exporting translates styles as font instructions instead of HTML tags, - importing doesn't use styles Some parts are well translated however (bibliography, figure, tables) so the hacking of the structure can be done quickly (if needed). For formulas the only way I know is ltx2rtf. If you have figures, don't forget to « break the links » (which means that you put the images in the document instead of kkeping them as links, following the same logic as « strt » for « stop » :-), otherwise you document cannot be moved without loosing them. -- Jean-Pierre

Re: LyX does not run BibTex
Hi Claus,
I'm running MikTex 2.0up1 and it seems to run fine manually.
It looks like LyX doesn't sense my bibliography file for some reason,
as it is not listed in the .dep file.
Here is also the beginning and the end of my .tex file from the tmp-directory:
\batchmode

\def\input@path{{Z:/LyxDocs/}}

\begin{document}
...
\bibliography{Z:/LyxDocs/photonics}
\end{document}
which looks allright to me... or does it?
If there is a line \def\input@path{{Z:/LyxDocs/}}, maybe the full path is
not necessary
in the \bibliography{Z:/LyxDocs/photonics}, just as it doesn't show up in
the lines
that include eps figures (only the filename).

Paragraph Spacing
Hello All: I am using the Document Class "Article" and would like to change spacing between paragraphs universally to have an extra space between paragraphs. According to the Lyx manual, I should have the SETSPACE package, which I put into the preamble as: \usepackage setspace Then I went to LAYOUT->DOCUMENT and changed Default Skip to BigSkip but it did not change anything when I viewed in DVI. This would seem to be something I could do document-wide rather than reverting to using the after every paragraph. Help?!?! I AM getting better at this, really I am.

Re: [pdftex] Re: tex2pdf 2.1 released
For people interested in script hacking. I wrote altpdftex, a sh script that uses tex->dvips->ps2pdf (or dvips->ps2pdf on dvi files). It can be linked symbolically to altpdflatex, altpdfetex, altpdfelatex and will do the other formats. altpdftex writes internmediary results in a temporary directory, minimizing the chances files are overwritten (a thing that has bitten be badly at one time). Mainly written for the same reason: old tex code with eps inclusions and ps tricks. There is another benefit for me. Sometimes pdftex produces pdf that, when viewed on my Mac OS X system and printed from there refuses to print on my NeXT printer. The same file through altpdflatex prints fine. The reason is unknown to me, but an alternative is nice to have. altpdftex can be found as ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/comp/macosx/tex- gs/altpdftex Dependencies: TeX dvips ghostscript (ps2pdf) SH On Monday, June 11, 2001, at 12:43 AM, Bryan J.

Both ideas are nice, though I expect your average Windows user would prefer something that could be installed and run under Windows, rather than having to reboot - though you have to reboot so often with Windows, people might not notice ;-) I'm also not sure whether most Win-users could be bothered with configuring X.

After some difficulty, I got harvard sty to be

\usepackage{harvard} in the preamble, when Lyx
compiles to dvi, I get errors in most (but NOT all)
of the sentences where there are citation references.
The errors say "undefined control sequence" and then
show part of the \cite command. (I inserted the cite
refs with the popup box, not with latex) when I
comment out the \usepackage{harvard}, the errors go
away, but the citation style isn't very nice.

Comprehensive variables list (was: Paragraph Spacing)

Herbert, I really appreciate all the lucid and useful help you
provide to us LyX users. It seems that there are many variables
like \parskip, which are good to know about for adjustments like
the original subject of this thread.
Can you suggest a way to learn about some of these variables,
as well as things like \AtBeginDocument{}? I don't know if a
list of such names exists, with brief descriptions---that'd be
really great. But in lieu of a list, could you suggest a pattern
to grep for, and over what files in what directories, something
like that? It wouldn't have descriptions, but at least might
give users like me some clues where to poke into for more info.
Thanks again for all your help.

Space between lines (whats wrong with this TeX?)
Hi,
I open a new document: report (koma-script) a4
The only thing I insert (in TeX mode) is:
\begin{center}
{\LARGE {\scshape Technische Universit{\"a}t M{\"u}nchen} \\
Department of Computer Science}
{\huge \bfseries\sffamily Pulsed neural networks with dynamic synapses in
speech recognition: \\A model motivated by the human auditory pathway}
\end{center}
Now look at the .ps file (or the printout)!
The first two lines ("Techn." and "Department ...") are so close
together the letters almost touch.
Furthermore, the title is formatted as
Pulsed neural networks with
dynamic synapses in speech recognition:
A model motivated by the human
auditory pathway
The distance between the first and second line is much larger than between
the others lines. Lines 2, 3, and 4 almost touch!
What is wrong with my LaTeX? I can't find my mistake!
Please help!

Cross-refs in Structured bibliography
Thanks to your help, I managed to get a structured bibliography done with all the features I need using bibtopic. However, I have two remaining problems: 1) It only works if I run latex/bibtex on the exported tex file manually. >From within lyx I just get unresolved references and an empty bibliography. I can't even insert references with the lyx popup but have to put it in ERT. 2) Cross-refs between different bibfiles do not work (they just do not appear). In case bibtopic is not the right package for this (the documantation seems to say so), is there any other way for achiving this? Does anyone has expiriences with multibib which is mentioned in the bibtopic docs? Thanks for your help. Marko

Bolding a Veritcal or Horizontal Line in a Table in Lyx
Hello World: I am nearly done now with this document and doing some minor tweaking (yes, I know, that is what Lyx is supposed to do). I have a table that I rotated 90 degrees to fit on my page. I want to put a BOLD lines -- some vertically and some horizontally -- to divide out the Total sections and headers. I was able to make it happen just using LaTeX to create the table (by repeating \hling\hline at the end of the line I wanted the bold on), but my Lyx barfed it up and I had to redo completely in Lyx. Now, I can't figure out how to get bolding back. I also had a cap on my table to define the columns as a whole (ie., used REGIONS to cap off columns labeled 0, I, II-X) The cap is NOT to go over the first column (defines the rows) and the last column (giving totals). This too was do-able in LaTeX. Are these possible in Lyx? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Michelle Any help would be greatly appreciated. Michelle __ Do You Yahoo!?

You need to change the bibliography style (by pressing on the
"Bibtex Generated References" inset, and changing the style field)
to one of the styles that comes with harvard, namely agsm, dcu, jmr, etc.

You need to put \par before the closing braces, namely
{\LARGE {\scshape Technische Universit{\"a}t M{\"u}nchen} \\
Department of Computer Science\par}
{\huge \bfseries\sffamily Pulsed neural networks with dynamic synapses in
speech recognition: \\A model motivated by the human auditory pathway\par}
But why you use raw latex ? you can set the font size/shape/series with LyX.

You mean that you want ALL text (normal text and math mode) in bold ?
I don't think that this is a good idea, but you can have your own opinion.

I prepared several presentations with lyx
(http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~dekelts/slides/)
and this wasn't much of a problem.

You can also change the size of the text in the slide by putting a font size
command at the beginning of the slide.

Use two \vfill command (and some slide styles center the text automatically,
e.g. seminar).

Re: tex2pdf 2.1 released -- appologies for my ignorance
I do PDF bookmarks, hyper-refs, etc. using normal LaTeX + dvips as
well as pdftex.
It works.
The components you have listed should be enough:

No, that's good enough.
The following code in your LaTeX preamble does most of what I want (with
LaTeX -> dvips ->ps2pdf). You can read the hyperref docs for more info.

% This is for good PDF production (with hyperlinks)

\usepackage[ps2pdf,pdftitle={Document Title Here},%

No, I don't think so. ;-) I have the full power of LaTeX *plus* the
convenience of WYSIWYM editing in LyX.

Yes, you can. Just mark it as TeX (or use the LaTeX paragraph format).

I just need "hyperref," right? What is the easiest way to install
it in a near-stock RedHat 7.1 full install (just added LyX,
TeTeX-LyX and XForms)?

The problem with "ps2pdf" is that it seems to not "preserve" the
orientation of my paper. E.g., if I use FoilTeX and landscape for
slides, the PDF will have the paper "portrait" with the output
"sideways." It's fine for printing, but not for presentations.
So I previously used "pdftex" but it didn't convert the EPS graphics
before output (and lost them in the end result). Hence why the
"tex2pdf" script was exactly what I needed -- and gives me both
thumbnails and hyperlinks in the PDF. I get everything but the PDF
bookmarks.
So that's all that's left.

Again, the hyperlinks come out great with "tex2pdf."

That's what I thought. It's like being able to in-line assembler in

Which I do for "\appendix". I'm _far_ from a LyX expert (although
everyone here in the local central/north Florida LUGs think I am --
GASP! -- anyone here in central/north Florida?), and I know even
less of [La]TeX. But I refuse to write anything that doesn't use a
standard, well-documented publication back-end ever again after my
Word 95 to 97 "snafus". **

** BTW, I was a contributing author on "Samba Unleashed." I found
it humorous that MacMillian made me write in MS Word, but I had to
use a single monospace font and put "tags" before all my
paragraphs/lines. They were probably saving it out as ASCII and
processing it with TeX or SGML anyway. Imagine all the increase in
productivity they could have had by simply creating a LyX template!
With Cygwin now sporting a full X-Server, LyX runs quite well on
Windows too.
