SV: journal abbreviations

Hi I do not use jabref, however in bibtex you may use strings{} for this. The best way is to use a shorthand form of the journal when you enter the citataion (like AJP) and then make a new bibfile with: @string{AJP = Am. J. Physiol.} and call that bibfile before your bibfile with citations. in

how to use custom insert

Hello, I'm using LyX 1.6.3 on a Mac. I'd like to define some custom insert in order to insert frequently used formatted text. There seems to be an item in the menu but all it says is No custom insets defined!. How do I define one? Could you please let me know whether I'm doing something wrong or

I have to disagree in this debate. I have found lyx a *superb* tool for making scientific posters! It gives a uniform look, as well as dealing with the proper formatting of legends and cross-references. Plus, it properly formats my bibtex references and places everything evenly distributed on
