Daniel,

   Linux has allowed printing PDF files to both printers and files since
1991. That's not the issue. The issue is printing sequential beamer pages
side-by-side in two columns.

I see. So, printing to PDF is possible since 1991 but not printing 
multiple (6) pages on one page. That's odd. But as I said, I don't have 
Linux, so I can't try anything out. Though I am very optimistic it's 
possible.


A post mentions the linux commands psnup/pdfnup. It also mentions a 
latex internal possibility with pgfpages which I used before but I seem 
unable to find that package.

ps. Sorry, pgfpages seems not to support the 6 on 1. Odd. But the Linux 
command might still hold hope for you. I am still puzzled that such a 
multiple page printing isn't supported on Linux directly from the 
printing dialog... even not in Acrobat reader?

  Fixed. I added a space between the slide frame and the note. Now both
display properly.

  Still working on how to make a printed document with the slides on the
left and the associated note on the right. Perhaps pdftk can reassemble a
burst document in the desired format.

Beamer class: add end-frame separator

  Adding notes to my presentation has been a trial. Now all the lines
indicating frame ends have gone missing and I don't find an environment to

   Which PDF view allows you to print the document that way? When I use

mupdf, acroread, or MasterPDFEditor I can print (to file or a physical

Unfortunately, I am on another OS and use a Windows only PDF printer 
(pdf creator). However, I would expect that this must be possible on 
Linux too. Maybe someone else who uses Linux can help here. I have found 
this link after a quick search:

Problem with spellchecking in Danish

[Jeppe Druedahl]

Hi

The spellchecker does not work when I try to use Danish. LyX recognizes that I 
have da_DK.aff and da_DK.dic in my Ressources\dicts, but it knows no Danish 
words. The spellchecker works in English, German, French etc. A colleague of 
mine has the same problem. Any idea what is causing it?

I am using Lyx 3.2.1 on a Windows 10 machine with TexLive. Spellchecking in 
Danish have previously worked well.

I have tried to update the da_DK.aff and da_DK.dic files in Ressources\dicts 
from here https://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyxsvn/dictionaries/trunk/dicts. The 
Danish dictionary is still recognized by LyX, but no words are known.

Hello,

I do not understand why lyx crashes when I run the spell checker.
Then it crashes every time that I try to reload it!!!
It is a BEARMER document.
Unfortunately, it is not a document that I can broadcast, and I am in
rush.

This is a bit of a shot in the dark, but you can try the following. Move 
your ~/.lyx directory someplace (as a backup), then start LyX, 
reconfigure, and restart LyX. See if that lets you load the beamer 
document safely.

No, you actually need both the "notes" option set in the class options

Daniel,

  Yes, of course. What I meant is the ERT is needed, not the grey NOTE box
produced by the menu Insert -> Custom Insets -> Beamer Note.
