Things are actually a bit more complicated than this. LaTeX XFT-fonts 
are installed by default in LyX/Mac in the LyX/Mac bundle, but for some 
reason these fonts are not being recognized. When I reconfigure LyX, I 
get the following output in console:

checking for TeX fonts

removing xfonts/fonts.dir, which is identical to the system global

In my teTeX installation, I have duplicate versions of all these fonts

Dotless j and mathpazo

2004-07-20 Thread Milos Komarcevic
How can one get the dotless j with mathpazo (or any PSNFSS) fonts in 
math mode?

$\textrm{\j}$ gives me a black square (but ok with CM fonts?)
$\jmath$ doesn't cut it because I need an upright bold version
The character is there, as seen in pazotest.pdf that comes with mathpazo 
documentation. The only way I managed to get it is defining my own 
command (modelled according to \ppleuro in mathpazo.sty):

\newcommand{\dotlessj}{{\fontencoding{U}\fontfamily{fplm}\selectfont 
\char226}}

Isn't there an easier way? Any reason why \j or \dotlessj aren't defined 
in mathpazo.sty already?

tfm: TeX font metric file. TeX reads .tfm files to find out how big letters
are. (TeX doesn't actually know anything about fonts.) Some other program,
like a driver, reads PK, Type1, TrueType etc to actually render the
letters.

You might find this useful for general info: http://tinyurl.com/4hl6g

pfb: Typically, a UNIX Type1 font is distributed as an afm (adobe font

the glyphs, while the metric file contains the metrics. On Win32 afm files
are often replaced by pfm files.

Re: inserting an empty page

2004-07-20 Thread Ansgar Hoffmann
Zitat von Rich Shepard [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 Ansgar,

   I don't think that I completely understand. The title page should 
not be
 numbered.

There's no number printed on the title page with the book document 
class. But
the second page should start with ii not i, so the next page on the 
right
side, which would be the first containing any text, is numbered iii. 
That's
what I think is the way it's meant to be.


   If you use the Insert-Lists  ToC you don't need to insert LaTeX.
Yep, I used the menu to insert the ToC. But I want the frontmatter of my 
document  to
appear in the ToC as well, like

Table of Contents
Abstracti
Acknowledgementsiii
Table of Contentsv
Table of figuresvii
Chapter 11
  Section 1.1   5
Chapter 217
and so on...
That's why I put in the ERT. I didn't see another way apart from using 
ERT for
that. Without ERT the frontmatter simply doesn't appear in the ToC. With the
report document class and using ERT this works fine, but with the book
document class the list-entries for the Table of Contents, list of 
figures and
list of tables have wrong numbers. Any ideas how to change that?

Herbert's workaround is a good alternative, though.

Do you mean chapter 5.7.3? It seems that this is a bug. The minibuffer 
commands don't work.
But if you use math-commands, it works. E.g. if you type '\displaystyle' 
in an inline formula, a purple-framed box appears in which you can 
insert the stuff, that should be displayed in the size 'displaystyle'.

Hi Bennet!

I am not sure what is causing the problem. Installed LyX for

Interestingly, tough it happens ONLY for selected characters.
It is like if it was just missing exactly one or two fonts but not
more. I am quite confused here as not even hacking
around like e.g., replace the xfonts dir by a backupped one etc helps...

I heard you took over from Ron for version 1.4.0, is that right?
I would love to be a LyX tester for you whenever you need people to

I'm getting the same problem here.
You need to install the LaTeX XFT-fonts.
Things are actually a bit more complicated than this. LaTeX XFT-fonts 
are installed by default in LyX/Mac in the LyX/Mac bundle, but for some 
reason these fonts are not being recognized. When I reconfigure LyX, I 
get the following output in console:

checking for TeX fonts
+checking for cmex10... yes (pfb)
+checking for cmmi10... yes (pfb)
+checking for cmr10... yes (pfb)
+checking for cmsy10... yes (pfb)
+checking for eufm10... yes (pfb)
+checking for msam10... yes (pfb)
+checking for msbm10... yes (pfb)
+checking for wasy10... yes (pfb)
removing xfonts/fonts.dir, which is identical to the system global 
version
removing font links

In my teTeX installation, I have duplicate versions of all these fonts 
as .tfm and .pfb files; that's causing the conflict, right?

How can we get LyX to recognize the .ttf fonts in the LyX.app bundle?

Dotless j and mathpazo

2004-07-20 Thread Milos Komarcevic
How can one get the dotless j with mathpazo (or any PSNFSS) fonts in 
math mode?

$\textrm{\j}$ gives me a black square (but ok with CM fonts?)
$\jmath$ doesn't cut it because I need an upright bold version
The character is there, as seen in pazotest.pdf that comes with mathpazo 
documentation. The only way I managed to get it is defining my own 
command (modelled according to \ppleuro in mathpazo.sty):

\newcommand{\dotlessj}{{\fontencoding{U}\fontfamily{fplm}\selectfont 
\char226}}

Isn't there an easier way? Any reason why \j or \dotlessj aren't defined 
in mathpazo.sty already?

Regards,
Milos

I have had no such problems with my Lyx/Mac. On both OS X 10.2 and 10.3.
I get the same output in the console and I also have both .tfm and .pfb 
fonts installed.
Must be something else?

tfm: TeX font metric file. TeX reads .tfm files to find out how big letters
are. (TeX doesn't actually know anything about fonts.) Some other program,
like a driver, reads PK, Type1, TrueType etc to actually render the
letters.

You might find this useful for general info: http://tinyurl.com/4hl6g

pfb: Typically, a UNIX Type1 font is distributed as an afm (adobe font
metric) file, and an outline file, which is usually a pfb (printer font
binary) or pfa (printer font ascii) file. The outline file contains all
the glyphs, while the metric file contains the metrics. On Win32 afm files
are often replaced by pfm files.

A general description of all the different font files on your machine and
how to go about configuring 'em: http://tinyurl.com/43vrv

I don't suppose that either link will nail down your problem, but I've
found both to be generally useful.

Re: inserting an empty page

There's no number printed on the title page with the book document 
class. But
the second page should start with "ii" not "i", so the next page on the 
right
side, which would be the first containing any text, is numbered "iii". 
That's
what I think is "the way it's meant to be".

Yep, I used the menu to insert the ToC. But I want the frontmatter of my 
document  to
appear in the ToC as well, like

Table of Contents
Abstracti
Acknowledgementsiii
Table of Contentsv
Table of figuresvii
Chapter 11
  Section 1.1   5
Chapter 217
and so on...
That's why I put in the ERT. I didn't see another way apart from using 
ERT for
that. Without ERT the frontmatter simply doesn't appear in the ToC. With the
report document class and using ERT this works fine, but with the book
document class the list-entries for the Table of Contents, list of 
figures and
list of tables have wrong numbers. Any ideas how to change that?

Herbert's workaround is a good alternative, though.

Ansgar

math-size displaystyle

2004-07-20 Thread Eric Delevaux
Hi list
Back with another problem :)
I can't use the math-size displaystyle like in man, 5.6.3.
It does work in the man, but i type "math-size displaystyle" in my equation and 
nothing happens. I saw previous messages in archive but no solutions (except 
redefining something in preamble and then ert...)
Does anyone use this?
Thanks Eric

Do you mean chapter 5.7.3? It seems that this is a bug. The minibuffer 
commands don't work.
But if you use math-commands, it works. E.g. if you type '\displaystyle' 
in an inline formula, a purple-framed box appears in which you can 
insert the stuff, that should be displayed in the size 'displaystyle'.

Also for the Aqua version? This makes complete sense
for the X11 version but not the Aqua version!

Steve,
which version of Lyx do you have 1.3.4 or 1.3.3?
I believe, it happens only for LyX Aqua 1.3.4

Re: Font problem

2004-07-20 Thread Jan Peters
Hi Bennet!

I am not sure what is causing the problem. Installed LyX for
a completely new user and it did not help - same problem.
Interestingly, tough it happens ONLY for selected characters.
It is like if it was just missing exactly one or two fonts but not
more. I am quite confused here as not even hacking
around like e.g., replace the xfonts dir by a backupped one etc helps...

I heard you took over from Ron for version 1.4.0, is that right?
I would love to be a LyX tester for you whenever you need people to
test the new version upon!!

report, labeling

2004-07-20 Thread Oliver Margraf
Hello list,
I'm curious if there's a smoother way for this 'problem': When I want 
use the labeling environment in the report class (koma-script), usually 
I define it by selecting the environment from the dropdown menu. But 
there's no chance to define the longest title - to do that I have to 
use ERT. Is there a way to achieve this without using ERT?
tia.
