Hello, there is an ongoing pull request for your package at:
https://github.com/pacstall/pacstall-programs/pull/971. Just a couple of
questions, would you like to maintain it, and also it would be great to
have this installation method in wiki (users can install via: pacstall -I
lyx-deb once the PR is merged).

Re: moderncv class broken?

2010-07-28 Thread Nathan Tomlin
Hmm, I got moderncv to work on a computer running windows 7, both lyx
versions 1.6.5 and 1.6.7 work. However, it still doesn't work on two
different machines running windows XP - Lyx versions 1.6.5, 1.6.6.1 and
1.6.7 all give the same error. Miktex is updated on all machines. I
installed Lyx using the alternative windows installer
(altinstaller-complete) on all machines.

I've attached a test lyx file. Anyone else have trouble with this file on
XP?

Re: how do I embed all fonts using pdflatex on windows?

2008-05-15 Thread Nathan Miller

I think you are right, Les. The huge number of fonts must be from the
figures, which is worrisome b/c I have over 100 figures. Most figures are
saved as pdf from matlab, while the rest are printed from powerpoint and
tinycad using pdfcreator. For most figures, I use a script to automatically
calculate the bounding box, which uses pdftops, ps2eps, and finally
epstopdf. Maybe a solution would be to see whether any of those 3 programs
can be set to embed all fonts.

Using pdffonts, I have ~100 type 1 fonts (most not embedded), 10 truetype
fonts (all embedded), ~10 type 3 fonts (all embedded), ~3 type 1c fonts
(embedded), and 1 CID truetype font (embedded). So Les, if I'm understanding
you correctly, I should only potentially have trouble with the type3 and
CID1 fonts becoming bitmapped if I use ps2pdf.

As a first try, I will use pdflatex, then pdf2ps, then ps2pdf to see how it
looks, since it's easier than redoing all my figures.  

I know basically nothing about all this font business, but naively it seems
like some program should just be able to see which fonts are not embedded,
and then add them to the pdf. Is there a basic reason this wouldn't work?

Re: how do I embed all fonts using pdflatex on windows?

Got it to work! I followed Les' advice and fixed each figure pdf file. Since
I already converted each figure pdf to ps then eps then pdf, I figured it
wouldn't hurt anything to do it again. But this time I added some ghostview
commands to epstopdf. Originally I had:

epstopdf --nocompress input.eps

which I changed to:

epstopdf --nocompress --gsopt=-dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -dSubsetFonts=true
-dEmbedAllFonts=true input.eps

All fonts are now embedded and my thesis was accepted!

ps - I don't remember why I originally decided to use epstopdf instead of
eps2pdf for the conversion.

how do I embed all fonts using pdflatex on windows?

2008-05-14 Thread Nathan Miller
I've used Lyx for writing my thesis and it has been wonderful! Everything
works beautifully and I'm ready to submit my final pdf file. However, I just
realized I need to embed all the fonts in the pdf, and I haven't been able
to figure out how to do this.

I've found lots of information on using ps2pdf, but at this point with a 150
page document, I'm worried about the conversion from pdf - ps - pdf. Is
there a way to embed the fonts with pdflatex, which is what I'm already
using in Lyx?

I'm checking whether the fonts are embedded using Acrobat (properties) and
pdffonts. There are a scary number of fonts (~100) and most are not
embedded.

I found instructions about pdflatex here:
http://do.whileloop.org/soft/tricks/pdflatex-fonts.php
but it seemed like my pdftex config file is already set to
*pdftexDownloadBase14 true
*but I tried anyway and used the command
*initexmf --edit-config-file updmap*
to edit updmap.cfg and added the following lines:
*pdftexDownloadBase14 true
dvipsPreferOutline true
dvipsDownloadBase35 true
dvipdfmDownloadBase14 true*

But the added lines seem to have no affect on the embedded pdf fonts. Any
help is much appreciated.

Itemize inside proof?

2007-06-29 Thread Nathan Russell

Hi,

I've been told it's possible in LaTeX to put an itemize inside a proof
environment without breaking the proof (so, no end proof symbol, no word
proof appearing after the itemize).

How do I do this in Lyx?

Thanks in advance.
Nathan

Re: Question - theorem numbering

2007-06-14 Thread Nathan Russell

Hmm, I think it's interacting weirdly with some other stuff.  Also, I want
definitions to be numbered within chapters (and not within sections).

Is there a good general guide to numbering somewhere?

Thanks much again!

Hi,

I'm trying to compile LyX 1.4.3 on Slamd64 11.0.  I used to be able to do

It seems to get through the entire compile process and then barf on
the final linking.  I've tried forcing library paths to /usr/lib64 and
so on, played with using either static or dynamic linking, tried the
included boost library, and played with the pic option.  I'm using the
qt frontend.  The linker barfing might be related to the boost
library, as those are the objects that are listed near the error.

Hi there,

got a PPC OS X 10.4 machine, and I'm running Lyx 1.4 and my TeX  
installation is via the i-Installer program.
	I'm trying to include images in my documents, but I cannot figure  
out how to get them to both display inline on the screen and to  
printout when Lyx goes to process the document to PDF.  EPS images  
process to PDF nicely, but they don't display in the screen version.   
I've tried searching for how to set Lyx up to see the images, but I'm  
not having much success.
	What's the overall most successful way to create images for both  
printing and display?


Thanks in advance.

Re: problem compiling on x86_64 (Slamd64)

2005-08-22 Thread Nathan Becker
I eventually was able to compile LyX by temporarily hiding my 32-bit 
version of the GL library and creating a link to the 64-bit version. 
There was the same problem with the artsd library as well.


Since the program now runs perfectly as a 64-bit binary, I suspect that Qt 
is not improperly linked.  Maybe there is some generic linking that LyX is 
using for all of Qt that has a hardcoded path for some of these libraries? 
I don't really know; I searched the Makefiles but could not figure it out.



LyX itself does not use libGL directly. Could it be that you Qt is
linked wrongly?

is not improperly linked.  Maybe there is some generic linking that LyX is 
using for all of Qt that has a hardcoded path for some of these libraries? 
I don't really know; I searched the Makefiles but could not figure it out.



LyX itself does not use libGL directly. Could it be that you Qt is
linked wrongly?

I eventually was able to compile LyX by temporarily hiding my 32-bit 
version of the GL library and creating a link to the 64-bit version.

problem compiling on x86_64 (Slamd64)

2005-08-15 Thread Nathan Becker
I'm having trouble compiling LyX 1.3.6 on an AMD64 machine.  For some 
reason LyX is looking in the /usr/lib directory for some libraries even 
though all environment variables point it to /usr/lib64


Here is the error message:
/usr/lib/libGL.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format

It should be trying to use /usr/lib64/libGL.so

The library path is set appropriately in the Makefile.

Thanks for your help.

Map lyx style to latex command with many arguments?

2004-01-08 Thread Nathan Weston
Is there any way to create a custom style that maps to a latex command with 
more than 2 arguments?
I'm thinking of something like Description, except the first word would become 
argument 1, the second word would become argument 2, ... the nth word would 
become argument n, and the rest of the words would become argument n+1.

i.e. if you formatted the paragraph
one two three rest of the paragraph

in a style Foo, it might translate to a latex command like this:
\foo{one}{two}{three}{rest of the paragraph}

Is this possible, or am I stuck using ERTs?

 Could you try to get a backtrace? Something like
 
 gdb ./lyx
 (gdb) run
 [load the file]
 ...crash...
 (gdb) bt

crash on opening document

2002-07-16 Thread Nathan Becker

Hi,

I just upgraded from lyx-1.6fix2 to 1.2.0.  I'm running on Redhat 7.0.  I 
compiled from sources using the xforms 0.88 glibc library.  Everything 
compiles and installs fine.  When I run lyx the main screen appears with 
no problem.  But as soon as I try to either open an old document or start 
a new document I get the following message

lyx: SIGSEGV signal caught
Sorry, you have found a bug in LyX. Please read the bug-reporting 
instructions i
n Help->Introduction and send us a bug report, if necessary. Thanks !
Bye.
Aborted (core dumped)

Any suggestions?

thanks,
Nathan

Hi Herbert,

I deleted the entire .lyx directory and let lyx rebuild it fresh.  This 
didn't fix it.

I also looked in stdclass.inc in /usr/local/share/lyx/layouts but the line 
you said to add is already there.

I tried compiling and reinstalling 1.1.6fix4 just in case I've screwed 
something else up on my system.  1.1.6fix4 opens docs without 
crashing.

Any more suggestions?

Thanks for your help,
Nathan
