Sorry. It worked well for me. I have just converted an entire book from

- with some

To identify the problem, so that the WiKi entry can be corrected:

I have a full python on my computer and simply tried (by renaming) to

hyperref export to PDF on Fedora Core

[Todd Denniston]

Hello,
I have been using LyX for a while now (~4 years), and have recently ran into
a problem with hyperref when I upgraded to Fedora Core 3 (FC3) from
Slackware 8.1.
A LyX document I have which exported to PDF (pdflatex) using LyX
1.3.1(xforms interface) on Slackware many times (and I still can as I still
have the machine with that install) gives me errors when I do the export on
FC3 (also tried on FC12, yields the same errors) using either LyX 1.3.1 or
LyX 1.3.5 (qt interface). I have attached a trimmed down version of the file
where it still exhibits all 3 errors I get.  I do not believe that the
problem lies with LyX as when I export the file to LaTeX on both platforms I
get the same .tex file.

I really want hyperref because it makes the bookmarks section of the PDFs
work, which is why I am looking for a solution that includes hyperref or an
appropriate replacement.

a few questions
1) has anyone else had this problem with FC[123], and what if any solution
did you find?
2) Is there a known package, or set of packages, replacement or upgrade to
fix this problem?
3) what easy way is there to find out the versions of all the [La]Tex
programs  classes/styles being used in converting my document on both
installations? (so I can ask questions more intelligently.)
4) although I would prefer not to have to change from the default LyX export
settings, is there another method to export to PDF and get the same results?

on FC3 I am using the tetex package FC labels as tetex-2.0.2-21.3 on
Slackware I do not quite know which tetex version is being distributed, the
last entry in /usr/share/texmf/ChangeLog of the Slack system is Sat Feb 12
15:13:12 CET 2000 * fixed wrong characters in TETEXDOC.ps

The errors are:
error 1 
pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier (name{page.1})

Thanks.

BTW thanks to all the list posters, I have found many of your
fixes/tips/tricks very useful over the years with out having, until now, ask
the questions myself.

This is rapidly becoming a LyX/Win FAQ. Indeed, much of the information 
you require is detailed in the rest of this thread. However, I think that 
a recap might provide you with some illumination.

The reLyX Perl script converts your LaTeX file to a file in a mish-mash of 
different LyX file formats and it is this mish-mash LyX file must be 
sanitized by the lyx2lyx Python conversion script.

It is this conversion script, lyx2lyx, can't be run because it is invoked 
by LyX as 

  path to\lyx2lyx --output new file.lyx old file.lyx

Invocation of the script in this way is perfectly fine in a Unix 
environment because the shell will look at the first line of the script to 
ascertain what interpretter (python) should be used. Windows doesn't 
follow this tradition. Instead it looks either for a .py extension to 
the script name or requires that the script be invoked as

  python path to\lyx2lyx --output new file.lyx old file.lyx

Since the invocation is hard-coded into the LyX executable, you can't 
change it. Tough.

A work-around has been suggested, however. Place a file lyx2lyx.cmd in 
the same directory as the lyx2lyx python script. This file should contain 
the line:

@ path to python\python path to lyx2lyx\lyx2lyx %*

You can also run these scripts from the CMD prompt.

PROMPT reLyX -f hello.tex
PROMPT python path to lyx2lyx\lyx2lyx -o sanitized_hello.lyx hello.lyx

This sanitized_hello.lyx should be loadable by LyX 1.3.x without further 
conversion. This assumes, of course, that reLyX has done a reasonable job 
of converting your LaTeX file in the first place.

Alternatively, you might consider using tex2lyx. Read about it here:

Can I suggest that you post minimal latex files of any construct that you

to this effect to the page itself.

Aren't we all. Still it's looking a lot more solid than it did a month or

  Yes. I needed C-e to move to the end of a line so I made C-i the key
instead. The other two font changers are C-b for bold and C-k for (k)apitol;
i.e., small caps which LaTeX uses as the noun form for names of people.

hyperref export to PDF on Fedora Core

[Todd Denniston]

Hello,
I have been using LyX for a while now (~4 years), and have recently ran into
a problem with hyperref when I upgraded to Fedora Core 3 (FC3) from
Slackware 8.1.
A LyX document I have which exported to PDF (pdflatex) using LyX
1.3.1(xforms interface) on Slackware many times (and I still can as I still
have the machine with that install) gives me errors when I do the export on
FC3 (also tried on FC12, yields the same errors) using either LyX 1.3.1 or
LyX 1.3.5 (qt interface). I have attached a trimmed down version of the file
where it still exhibits all 3 errors I get.  I do not believe that the
problem lies with LyX as when I export the file to LaTeX on both platforms I
get the same .tex file.

I really want hyperref because it makes the bookmarks section of the PDFs
work, which is why I am looking for a solution that includes hyperref or an
appropriate replacement.

a few questions
1) has anyone else had this problem with FC[123], and what if any solution
did you find?
2) Is there a known package, or set of packages, replacement or upgrade to
fix this problem?
3) what easy way is there to find out the versions of all the [La]Tex
programs  classes/styles being used in converting my document on both
installations? (so I can ask questions more intelligently.)
4) although I would prefer not to have to change from the default LyX export
settings, is there another method to export to PDF and get the same results?

on FC3 I am using the tetex package FC labels as tetex-2.0.2-21.3 on
Slackware I do not quite know which tetex version is being distributed, the
last entry in /usr/share/texmf/ChangeLog of the Slack system is Sat Feb 12
15:13:12 CET 2000 * fixed wrong characters in TETEXDOC.ps

The errors are:
error 1 
pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier (name{page.1})

This is rapidly becoming a LyX/Win FAQ. Indeed, much of the information 
you require is detailed in the rest of this thread. However, I think that 
a recap might provide you with some illumination.

The reLyX Perl script converts your LaTeX file to a file in a mish-mash of 
different LyX file formats and it is this mish-mash LyX file must be 
sanitized by the lyx2lyx Python conversion script.

It is this conversion script, lyx2lyx, can't be run because it is invoked 
by LyX as 

  path to\lyx2lyx --output new file.lyx old file.lyx

Invocation of the script in this way is perfectly fine in a Unix 
environment because the shell will look at the first line of the script to 
ascertain what interpretter (python) should be used. Windows doesn't 
follow this tradition. Instead it looks either for a .py extension to 
the script name or requires that the script be invoked as

  python path to\lyx2lyx --output new file.lyx old file.lyx

Since the invocation is hard-coded into the LyX executable, you can't 
change it. Tough.

A work-around has been suggested, however. Place a file lyx2lyx.cmd in 
the same directory as the lyx2lyx python script. This file should contain 
the line:

@ path to python\python path to lyx2lyx\lyx2lyx %*

You can also run these scripts from the CMD prompt.

PROMPT reLyX -f hello.tex
PROMPT python path to lyx2lyx\lyx2lyx -o sanitized_hello.lyx hello.lyx

This sanitized_hello.lyx should be loadable by LyX 1.3.x without further 
conversion. This assumes, of course, that reLyX has done a reasonable job 
of converting your LaTeX file in the first place.

Alternatively, you might consider using tex2lyx. Read about it here:

  Yes. I needed C-e to move to the end of a line so I made C-i the key
instead. The other two font changers are C-b for bold and C-k for (k)apitol;
i.e., small caps which LaTeX uses as the noun form for names of people.

Sorry. It worked well for me. I have just converted an entire book from

- with some
minor drawbacks regarding graphics. I have the same converter
instruction and the same OS and LyX version that you have noted.
To identify the problem, so that the WiKi entry can be corrected:
Could you just create a lyx file with some text in it ("Hallo World")
and export it to LaTeX and then import it to LyX? Could you just tell me
whether this works?

I have a "full" python on my computer and simply tried (by renaming) to
hide it and use Ruurd's python. This worked for me. Maybe we need the
"full" python and delete the python.exe in Ruurd's distribution. This 
would
be the next step to try.

I think that LaTeX export and import are /absolutely /essential.

hyperref export to PDF on Fedora Core

[Todd Denniston]

Hello,
I have been using LyX for a while now (~4 years), and have recently ran into
a problem with hyperref when I upgraded to Fedora Core 3 (FC3) from
Slackware 8.1.
A LyX document I have which exported to PDF (pdflatex) using LyX
1.3.1(xforms interface) on Slackware many times (and I still can as I still
have the machine with that install) gives me errors when I do the export on
FC3 (also tried on FC1&2, yields the same errors) using either LyX 1.3.1 or
LyX 1.3.5 (qt interface). I have attached a trimmed down version of the file
where it still exhibits all 3 errors I get.  I do not believe that the
problem lies with LyX as when I export the file to LaTeX on both platforms I
get the same .tex file.

I really want hyperref because it makes the "bookmarks" section of the PDFs
work, which is why I am looking for a solution that includes hyperref or an
appropriate replacement.

a few questions
1) has anyone else had this problem with FC[123], and what if any solution
did you find?
2) Is there a known package, or set of packages, replacement or upgrade to
fix this problem?
3) what easy way is there to find out the versions of all the [La]Tex
programs & classes/styles being used in converting my document on both
installations? (so I can ask questions more intelligently.)
4) although I would prefer not to have to change from the default LyX export
settings, is there another method to export to PDF and get the same results?

on FC3 I am using the tetex package FC labels as tetex-2.0.2-21.3 on
Slackware I do not quite know which tetex version is being distributed, the
last entry in /usr/share/texmf/ChangeLog of the Slack system is "Sat Feb 12
15:13:12 CET 2000 * fixed wrong characters in TETEXDOC.ps"

The errors are:
error 1 
"pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier (name{page.1})

This is rapidly becoming a LyX/Win FAQ. Indeed, much of the information 
you require is detailed in the rest of this thread. However, I think that 
a recap might provide you with some illumination.

The reLyX Perl script converts your LaTeX file to a file in a mish-mash of 
different LyX file formats and it is this mish-mash LyX file must be 
sanitized by the lyx2lyx Python conversion script.

It is this conversion script, lyx2lyx, can't be run because it is invoked 
by LyX as 

  \lyx2lyx --output .lyx .lyx

Invocation of the script in this way is perfectly fine in a Unix 
environment because the shell will look at the first line of the script to 
ascertain what interpretter (python) should be used. Windows doesn't 
follow this tradition. Instead it looks either for a ".py" extension to 
the script name or requires that the script be invoked as

  python \lyx2lyx --output .lyx .lyx

Since the invocation is hard-coded into the LyX executable, you can't 
change it. Tough.

A work-around has been suggested, however. Place a file "lyx2lyx.cmd" in 
the same directory as the lyx2lyx python script. This file should contain 
the line:

@ \python \lyx2lyx %*

You can also run these scripts from the CMD prompt.

PROMPT> reLyX -f hello.tex
PROMPT> python \lyx2lyx -o sanitized_hello.lyx hello.lyx

This sanitized_hello.lyx should be loadable by LyX 1.3.x without further 
conversion. This assumes, of course, that reLyX has done a reasonable job 
of converting your LaTeX file in the first place.

Alternatively, you might consider using tex2lyx. Read about it here:

Great page! This addresses essentially all my latex-import suggestions 
and problems that made me start this thread. Thanks for making tex2lyx 
accessible! (But still looking forward to the 1.4 release...)

Cheers,
Sven

Can I suggest that you post minimal latex files of any construct that you 
find aren't handled well to the lyx-devel list. In fact, I've added a note 
to this effect to the page itself.

> (But still looking forward to the 1.4 release...)

Aren't we all. Still it's looking a lot more solid than it did a month or 
so ago.

Keybinding for italic

[Paul Smith]

Dear All

Is there a keybinding for italic? I looked for it in the file
cua.bind, but with no success.

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Paul,
  From ~/.lyx/bind/cua.bind on my box:
\bind "C-i" "font-emph" # 'i' for Italic

Thanks, Rich. In my case,

\bind "C-i" "inset-toggle"  # 'i' for Inset

Strange!

Paul,
  No, I redefined it. :-)
#\bind "C-i""inset-toggle"  # 'i' for Inset
\bind "C-i" "font-emph" # 'i' for Italic
  Then I copy cua.bind to my.bind just in case.

So far, I have not been able to make this fly, although the two scripts 
from the CMD prompt do the job.

I have the download from the wiki and will try it tomorrow. Thanks for 
all your work on this.

Understood now!

Just a doubt: is emphasised exactly the same than italic?

Angus,

Your script make_tex2lyx_dist fails in my case (Mandrake 10.1):

 The following problems have been detected by configure.
 Please check the messages below before running 'make'.
 (see the section 'Problems' in the INSTALL file)

** Unknown frontend 'foo'

Paul

Paul,
  Yes. I needed C-e to move to the end of a line so I made C-i the key
instead. The other two font changers are C-b for bold and C-k for (k)apitol;
i.e., small caps which LaTeX uses as the noun form for names of people.
