Live updated text duplication?

2004-03-25 Thread Lux
Hello again.  Have to duplicate report text
in tabular form in the same report.  How can
one embed a text duplication in a table that
gets updated automatically when one changes
the original text?  AFAIK people sometimes
refer to this as live embedding.

How to import *.doc and *.pdf files into LyX without format loss?

2004-03-18 Thread Lux
Hi!  At last have got lyx under windoze to preview
dvi and pdf.  Now a step many of you have taken 
successfully.  How to import *.doc and *.pdf files
into lyx without format loss or as little as possible.
If intermediary steps are recommended, what are these?
What tools are required and where can they be downloaded.
What about RTF import?

Rob is kindly requested to expand his short guide to
a full qualified HOWTO.  :-)

Re: Lyx Win32 setup notes - some annotations

2004-03-16 Thread Lux
Hi!  Having followed the advice as best I can, things have
improved but still cannot preview anything, neither dvi nor
pdf previews (2 of the latter) work.  No output to the lyx
screen when doing C-d or selecting dvi from the menu but
the console tells me that a latex file was produced including
the body.  Both kinds of pdf preview tell me that there are
no instructions for previewing pdf.  In neither case are there
error messages on the console, started with lyx -dbg 3.

What should I try now, please?

Had exactly the same problem and output using sed 4.0.9.  So I deleted it
and renamed oldsed.exe to sed.exe.  Now /lyx/share/lyx/configure completes
without errors.  But I still cannot preview lyx files with dvi or pdf.  See

Missing class latex8 ?

2004-02-26 Thread Lux
Hi!

Even after installing texlive, running configure tells me
that the class latex8 is missing.  What is latex8 and, if
it is useful, where can one download this class, please?
