OT: post-process postscript or PDF document to add page numbering and footer
Off topic: I am looking for a solution to add running page numbering to a postscript or PDF document and maybe add a footer or header (maybe with a horizontal rule). Any tools or suggestions would be appreciated. Or if you know of a good forum or mailing list to discuss this, please let me know. Thanks! The original roff documents use various different roff macros all in one book compilation -- the page numbering keeps resetting because they are using different macros. Post-processing the PDF or postscript seems to be easier than converting the many documents to one macro style or to LyX or LaTeX (especially since they continue to be maintained in their original formats).
LyX 1.6rc2 crashes when navigating in the outline panel (MAC OS X)
Hi there, I'd just like to report that LyX version 1.6rc2 repeatedly crashes when trying to open child documents from a master document by clicking in the toggle outline panel (see details from the Apple's crash reporter in the attached file). Besides this minor problem I am loving the features of this new version. Congratulations for all of those involved.

Re: eps to pdf converter/eps preview
Ernesto Posse wrote: Hi. I have an issue with previewing EPS files. I've seen in the list's archives similar problems, but I think I'm missing something. I have an EPS diagram generated by Metapost from a Dia diagram. When I include the generated EPS image, the document is generated correctly by latex + dvipdf or latex + dvips + ps2pdf (but not by pdflatex.) Yet I get the typical "Unable to convert to loadable format" in the LyX preview. What is strange is that I do have the converter from Imagemagick and epstopdf installed. When I run these I get an error from ghostscript (below.) Both seem to complain about cmmi10, but I don't know what this is: a missing font? If so, why doesn't latex complain about it? What can I do about it? By the way, imagemagick's converter gives me this error: "convert: Postscript delegate failed `ex1v2.eps': No such file or directory." but the file is there...

ImageMagick calls Ghostscript to do part of the conversion, so it's no surprise you're getting the same error message both times. The "no such file" message from convert may just mean that it didn't find an intermediate file it was expecting from Ghostscript (the reference to 'ex1v2.eps' is probably just a reminder which source file was being processed when the universe imploded). I can't read Ghostscript dumps, but it would not surprise me if '/undefined in cmmi10' means that the EPS file contains a character that does not exist in the cmmi10 font. Are there any "funny" characters used in the plot? Would you care to post ex1v2.eps to the list, where we can take a look at it? /Paul

1.6.0 rc2 bug and feature request
hello, On my system, opensuse 11.0 with kde, all dialog box are open in "full screen" mode, e.g., size of dialog box is same of entire screen, without option for change size. In rc1 this not happen. Is impossible work with search and replace with this behaviour. Little bugs in rc1 remains in rc2: a) tools bar in vertical mode at the sides of the screen go down when I stop and run Lyx. b) first open of a file with paragraph with no indentation and that start with an ERT show it superpossed to the text. Feature request: a) I want a doc help with inline completion instructions. I have not clear idea how work it. b) In early version of version control I have an option for check changes one by one. I have not see it in 1.6.0 version. Thanks! Marcelo Marcelo Acuña visitá mi sitio web http://www.aleph-uno.com.ar == Yahoo!
