I just needed to set the Page Style to plain so that no header-footer decorations and no page numbers appear. If they do appear, the cropping is such that headers-footers and the page number are included. Thanks. Jerry

Instead, I see an entire page with the equation on the first line. I.e., no cropping. What am I doing wrong? LyX 2.3.0 Jerry When you say "entire page", do you mean a full page in both dimensions? I just tried it, and I got a PDF with a full page (including page number) in the vertical dimension but a width just barely enough to hold the equation. If you need cropping in both directions, I would suggest using the "standalone" document class. If the equation is inline, that should be sufficient. If the equation is display mode (centered on the page), you can either (a) convert it to inline and switch to display mode for subscripts and superscripts inside the inline equation (then export normally, no cropping required), (b) leave the equation in display mode and add the "preview" class option, then export normally, or (c) do (b) but export cropped. Methods (a) and (c) should produce an equation with minimal whitespace on any side; method (b) will (I think) crop vertically but not horizontally. Paul

Is the equation the only line in the document? Is it an inline or display equation? What other characteristics are selected on the Insert -> Math menu? The more details the better. Regards, Rich

It crops from the equation to the page number, so the area is quite large but not the whole page. If I set the page layout page style to empty (via Document > Settings), I get the formula only. (For a short time the full page is shown in the PDF viewer but it is almost immediately replaced by its cropped version.) Daniel

Re: Any possible way to have clickable table of contents when exporting to PDF?
Hello, I played with this option without any effect. Whatever PDF reader I use, TOC is not clickable. Is there a trick when exporting the document?
