springer llncs
I need to format a document using Springer's package for lecture notes in compter science. I got the latex macros from their web site (LLNCS DOCUMENT CLASS -- version 2.13 (28-Jan-2002)) and located them so that TeX can find them. I fired up lyx, selected edit/reconfigure. Among the output was +checking for document class llncs [llncs]... yes so I figure all is well. I quit restarted lyx, created a new document, and in layout/document dialog, I changed the document class to Springer - Lecture Notes in Comp. Sci.. Immediately, I get the following output to the terminal: Cannot copy unknown style `Journal' All layouts so far: Standard Chapter Section Subsection Subsubsection Paragraph [...] repeated four times. Is this normal? Things *seem* to work ok, but that output is curious. I'm using lyx 1.2.2 btw. Hmm. On closer examination, the llncs.layout file that comes with lyx has four lines that read CopyStyle Journal I suppose this is the source of my troubles. Am I missing a Journal .layout file?

Is this a solid workaround for using bibunits without bibliographytitle
Hi I'm using bibunits.sty to insert a special list of references in my thesis. In this case I don't want the usual Bibliography-title, and I'm using a tip from this list to fix that.

Thanks, nirmal tex2pdf aims to run pdflatex on tex file ready for plain latex (i.e. creating dvi) without altering the original. Basically it - copies all original tex files as -xxx.tex files (xxx defaults to pdf) - converts all ps or eps graphics to pdf using esptopdf (which lies with the latex binaries, as a perl scrip calling gs) - inserts the hyperref commands described by the configuration files (take the default if not done In addition, it does all the necessary runs to cope with bibtex, index, glossary, check for metapost files, and gives a try (this is not stable yet) to psfrag part. So it does pdflatex for you, that means that you should not take steps on your own by including pdftex option of graphicx (I.m not really sure for this) or hyperref itself. You're message about input stack size is puzzling, first time I see it. I had to increase pool size and memory dur tu hyperref buffering needs. All seems correct up to there, you may run with -debug option and see directly what's wrong with the -pdf files, because this message kills the first pdflatex run, so that bibtex cannot work. As this belongs rather to tex2pdf than to lyx, I Cc my answer to the tex2pdf list. -- Jean-Pierre PS the reame is not useful for options, run tex2pdf -c to understand about those.

Hi I'm using bibunits.sty to insert a special list of references in my thesis. In this case I don't want the usual Bibliography-title, and I'm using a tip from this list to fix that. My question is if this solution will cause problems later on. Bascially I'm doing the following: (The lyx-file is here: http://www.md.kth.se/~chr/lyx/examples/bibunits/ ) In preamble:\usepackage{bibunits} In document: (ERT) \begin{bibunit}[unsrt] Normal citations (or \nocite{}-commands) (ERT) \def\chapter*#1{} (ERT) \putbib[aBibtexFile] (ERT) \end{bibunit} The rest of the thesis I've figured out that \def\chapter*#1{} redefines the environment chapter*, but I'm not sure if this will be temporary, or if there is a risk that later 'chapter*'-environments will be affected? In the original tip, the redefinition was to be inserted just before the bibliography, so there wasn't any risk of affecting a later chapter*-environment. /Christian -- Christian Ridderström http://www.md.kth.se/~chr
math symbols are displayed as text
Hi all, I have just installed the precompiled lyx 1.3.1 rpm for rh 8 on my rh8 system, and I am wondering how I can make lyx to display all math symbols as a symbol and not a red text? ( A \Leftrightarrow is displayed as a red Leftrightarrow and not == ) j

Re: Advantages of qt over xforms?
2. qt forntend lyx, gcc, qt as above if LC_ALL=pl_PL, and LANG=pl menu is in Polish, but in math editor I have LateX command instead of symbols (Gamma, Delta...) This is "as designed". Qt will *not* let us set a font that is of the wrong locale, no matter what we do. And it thinks the symbol fonts are of the wrong locale :( It is, frankly, fucking stupid of Qt, but we cannot do anything, I am afraid. regards, john If I understand You correctly, qt thinks math fonts are in wrong locale, and permits loading of this fonts, am I right?

springer llncs
I need to format a document using Springer's package for lecture notes in compter science. I got the latex macros from their web site (LLNCS DOCUMENT CLASS -- version 2.13 (28-Jan-2002)) and located them so that TeX can find them. I fired up lyx, selected edit/reconfigure. Among the output was +checking for document class llncs [llncs]... yes so I figure all is well. I quit & restarted lyx, created a new document, and in layout/document dialog, I changed the document class to "Springer - Lecture Notes in Comp. Sci.". Immediately, I get the following output to the terminal: Cannot copy unknown style `Journal' All layouts so far: Standard Chapter Section Subsection Subsubsection Paragraph [...] repeated four times. Is this normal? Things *seem* to work ok, but that output is curious. I'm using lyx 1.2.2 btw. Hmm. On closer examination, the llncs.layout file that comes with lyx has four lines that read CopyStyle Journal I suppose this is the source of my troubles. Am I missing a Journal .layout file? Or does llncs.layout need updating? Thanks for any enlightenment, -Steve

section and figure heads
Hi I am using the article format with 10pt times fonts. I need to change the defaults for the look of the section and figure headers. I need to reduce the size of the section heads defaults so that it is 12pt boldface (not 14pt) I also need to have a dot "." after the section number I need to also reduce to 12pt the "Referenced" header. For figures, I need the "Figure x." to be in 10 pt helvetica boldface with a dot "." not a colon (the default), and the caption to be helvetica 10pt. Same thing for tables.

Re: section and figure heads
here is my hatchet latex job This requires some mucking arround with some of the settings in the .cls in your preamble or at the start of your document. With the number of mods you want to do it may be worth copying the article.cls file and editing that. as for the size of the section headers etc you need change the part in the cls file that says something like the following [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] {-3.5ex [EMAIL PROTECTED] -1ex [EMAIL PROTECTED] -.2ex}% {2.3ex [EMAIL PROTECTED] {\normalfont\Large\bfseries}} you could just copy this to the preamble and change the \newcommand to \renewcommand and then play with the \Large command perhaps change it to \large As for the dot that should be easy but I tryed what I expected would work and it didnt so perhaps some one else can help you there. as for the figure change you should be able to put in ERT at the top of your document (I dont think it works in the preamble) \renewcommand\figurename{\normalfont\normalsize\bfseries Figure} \renewcommand\tablename{\normalfont\normalsize\bfseries Table} and so on once again I dont know about the . but I would have expected that there was one there automaticly. but realy copy article.cls to myarticle.cls and change it to do what you want. ofcause this is not exactly as simple as changing just the bits you want and you will need to also mod a .layout file cheers owen Hi I am using the article format with 10pt times fonts.

Layout: How to center counter_chapter label?
Hi folks, I'm modifying a thesis.layout file to get it to approximate the dvi file a little closer.

Also the mailing list for "center Counter_Chapter" without success. Has anybody seen or solved this? How do you get the top label centered over the bottom label? My guess is that I might have to add a "Center_Counter_Chapter" labeltype for the layouts, and I will delve into the source code if it can't be done in the layout. (It might be done manually, but that defeats the purpose of the "Counter_Chapter" labeltype.) Using LyX 1.3.1, QT, GNU/linux(2419), but had same behavior with 1.2.x and libforms.
