 I'm trying to use LaTeX and LyX for the first time and am having trouble

I guess you do not have a IEEEconf.layout file. As far as I know you have to 
make your own...

I hope that IEEEconf is a similar to IEEEtran :). In that case you have to 
find your IEEEtran.layout file copy it to a new file named IEEEconf.layout in

Hi

I wonder if you could elaborate on what you want to do. Transferring text

tried it out. It would however, end up as a text field in Mathcad 2000.

Transferring formulae is unlikely to work if you want them to be part of

Hanging Caps

2005-07-14 Thread Roy Schestowitz
Has anyone had luck embedding hanging caps (one large capital letter at the
start of a paragraph and /several/ lines adjacent to its right)? I spent days
trying to figure out a solution to no avail. I saw people doing it in LaTeX,
but I am very disorientated outside LyX. Any advice will be greatly
appreciated.

Have a look at

This is in French but it might be of help. I have never used it, though.

In summary put

\usepackage{lettrine}

in the preamble.  And then use \lettrine{X}{text} in your document.  X 
refers to the hanging letter and the text will be in small caps. Anything 
else will be texted wrapped in that paragraph.


More info can be found, in English, in the attachment.

Thanks a bunch. I used a translation tool and looked at the PDF demo. It seems
like valuable information that will lead me in the right direction.

Many thanks,

I haven't tried the Layout menu option, but (using the book class) I've
just put \appendix in ERT on a separate line just before the chapter title,

me. Hope that works for you too.


Milos,

  As long as the chapter is numbered, this does work just fine. Thanks very
much for the idea.

In the "Users Guide" is a paragraph about adding an Appendix (or more than

  In addition to Milos' excellent hack, I figured out my error with the menu
approach: I had selected the "Chapter*" environment rather than the "Chapter"
environment. Since it was not numbered it could not be lettered. User error,
again.

Fw: Mathcad?

I am afraid this did not get copied to Lyx-Users last time



Hi

I wonder if you could elaborate on what you want to do. Transferring text 
is a cut and paste operation. Have just

tried it out. It would however, end up as a text field in Mathcad 2000.

Transferring formulae is unlikely to work if you want them to be part of 
the maths in mathcad. That would appear to be a very different protocol 
from the Lyx math protocol, but someone else may have better ideas.

Hi,

has anyone successfully transferred information between LyX / LaTeX and 
Mathcad 2000i?


Best regards,

Hi,

I want to insert a multipage pdf document in the body of a lyx 
book-class document. I've converted the pdf file in 12 post-script files 
(one per page) in order to insert each one as a graphic. I want to keep 
(more or less) the original size of the PDF text. How can I change 
margins just for the few concerned pages?
