Re: Exporting to RTF
Nikos: I need some help. I have an article (for a Newsletter) which I have to deliver today. I am trying unsuccessfully to export my document _at least_ as an RTF to make my colleague's life easy :-). [I still have problems with all kinds of _external_ file formats] I get the following error in the terminal: (Not set):213 Error! More than 100 PushSource() calls Error: Cannot convert file Any hints? Thanks in advance, Nikos OK, I managed to get something. I removed all commands from the Preamble and all figures from the document (some svg caused problems - don't appear with their correct size in the produced RTF) and I get something which is more or less ready to work with. Cheers, Nikos

I confirm that I do have APA installed: $ kpsewhich apa.cls /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/apa/apa.cls Perhaps apa.layout was included in the ubuntu 1.4.x package, but not in 1.5.1? Don't know the answer to that -- I haven't installed an ubuntu package (yet -- it's on my to-do-someday list). You should be able to find the layout files in LyX root/Resources/layouts and confirm whether apa.layout is there. If not, I can easily e-mail it to you. I'm pretty sure you have the layout file, though: you posted earlier that it was listed in LyX as unavailable. If you didn't have the layout file, it would not be listed at all. You might confirm (via kpsewhich) that apacite.sty is also installed. If I'm reading apa.layout correctly, it tells LyX that apacite.sty is also used. I'm not sure what would happen if the configuration package found apa.cls but not apacite.sty. As of version 1.5.x at least, when you reconfigure LyX, it writes a log file in your user directory (at least on Windows). If present, it will tell you whether it searched for, and whether it found, the APA class. For instance, mine has +checking for document class apa [apa,apacite.sty]... yes If there's no checking for message, it didn't see a layout file. If there's a message but it says no, it found the layout file but not the class or style file(s). /Paul

Thanks Paul, I did indeed do reconfigure and restarted LyX. LyX complains about the file with the following: The layout file requested by this document, apa.layout, is not usable.

Nothing about rtf in export either, I can see Rich Text Format in Export - Custom, but OK and Apply are ghosted. Actually both are ghosted for all the formates listed (See screenshot attached). Perhaps these issues are a packaging problem? If I knew how LyX was supposed to behave I could submit a bug report to ubuntu. Thanks for your efforts. B. Bogart Paul A.
