Re: LyX DVI troubles
LaTex Error:File 'newcent.sty' not found
Even if I change the font to default, I get a similar error message.
Do you have a \usepackage{newcent} by any chance in your Latex preamble?

book formatting (for Rich Shepard)
You might try using the book style and layout, and doing:
My Book [title]
Rich Shepard [author]
ERT \thispagestyle{plain}\frontmatter
© 2003 Rich Shepard
[followed by foreward, dedication page, other books by Rich Shepard , etc.]
ERT \mainmatter
Table of Contents
Include: 01.lyx
Include: 02.lyx
. . .
ERT \backmatter
[Bibliography, endnotes, index, etc.]
This has worked for four different trade and university publishers.
For non-fiction I use the endnotes.sty package and jurabib, with a
\notehead macro to put chapter headings in the notes and renumber with
each chapter. I can share that if you need it.
Unless a publisher requires a special format, the less you hack the
standard styles and layouts, the less hassles when you revise, share
with collaborators, or adapt the output to another format.

LyX footers?
Hi, Is there a way in LyX to specify a footer message on the bottom of all pages of a document, to imitate a similar feature in Microsoft Word. I need to put a fine print :) message centered on the bottom of all pages - something like, ABCD School of Comp Sci - 2003 I've not seen this kind of feature mentioned anywhere that I can recall.

IBM Selectric
Hello: This might sound like a step backward but I would like to compose my paper as if it were typed on an IBM Selectric. (Remember those days?) I got so far as to converting the text fonts to typewriter in LyX left justified and double spaced but some obvious computer modern fonts remain, for example, with mathematical equations, the header for Abstract, size of the title, section numbers, etc. Does anyone know of a style file that mimics IBM selectric completely or how I can convert my LyX file to that style? Thanks, ANDREW P.S. I am more comfortable with TeX/LaTeX than LyX.
