Both machines are running Debian Sid and in both I installed Qt4 in the same way, by installing libqt4-dev.

Re: Help for paper about LaTeX/LyX and the meaning of life
I would like to drop a cent to the whole discussion. I am terrified reading about way how some publishers treats publication. Leaving layout to the author is the worst scenario from readers point of view. Author is responsible for content - the knowledge or scenario - and only small group of them may have enough knowledge about publishing standards and the printing culture. Historically the art work connected with printing has been developed through last six hundred years. Honestly saying, we cannot reduce that six hundred years to one or second piece of software. And author concentrated on his/her text cannot design coherent typeset template. With all the respect to authors and programmers. Word is a piece of crap in terms of typesetting, there was even time when moving .doc between computers may influence formatting. In professional typesetting every glyph on the page has is position, size, angle and so on. This cannot be solved in program based on simple flow of text on page. TeX was Knuth's solution to preparation of good quality scientific documents in scientific world when most popular way of publishing articles was exchanging poor photocopies of text entered on typewriter machine. You can still find articles authored by professors like Dijkstra and Wirth scanned and put in the internet databases. Knuth's TeX solved that very well. So well, that many scientists do not know/accept other way of writing their texts than in TeX/LaTeX. Regards, prof. Knuth! Regars, Lamport. But from artistic perspective, from point of view of all that people that study art for couple of years before they start designing professionally, LaTeX products are really far from ideal - it is beacause when you writing software it is mathematically impossible to cover all boundary conditions that may happen during typesetting. All that and previous discussion leads me to the conclusion, that every publisher preparing books for the market (in does not matter wheter it is a book for bookstore or some publication for professors), who does not invest in professional human-driven typesetting do the assassination of the six hunderd years history of typesetting. Please keep than on mind. All above is my private opionin and was not my intention to offence anyone. -- Manveru jabber: manv...@manveru.pl gg: 1624001 http://www.manveru.pl

The file is corrupted, maybe by truncating, external edit or insertion of an invalid character (via drag and drop or whatever). I cannot spot the wrong character in the attached example.

When its stops it normally says: "wrong character in position xxx" and the file is converted until that point. The position is given in bytes from the start of the file, so normally not very useful except if you have some editor which can give you the same information. But the converted file notmally ends just before the wrong character, so it's easy to find.

Re: Nice LYX report template
Benjamin K wrote: Hi I am working with LYX for the first time and am looking for a very nice looking LYX report template for my assignments af the Engineering college of Copenhagen. It is not a thesis template i am looking for but rather something that would give room for the following content: Synopsis 1 Introduction 2 Requirement specification 3 Design 4 Theory 5 Analysis 6 Simulations 7 Test 8 Conclusion 9 Appendix I have been looking for this template myself but without result. I tried to search for: "technical report lyx template" etc. This seems straightforward enough. If this really is all, then perhaps no special template is necessary. Try the document class "report" or perhaps "report (KOMA-script)". The report classes start each chapter on a new page. If that isn't what you want, use the "article" class. It doesn't use chapters, only sections. If you write a lot of these reports, make your own template that contains these headings (and whatever else is common to all your reports.) Or is there some sort of problem, like strict layout requirements? I am studying to Electronics engineering and am looking forward to produce better looking reports. Often i am using a lot of figures and graphs. LyX should handle figures and graphs fine, although you will need to make them with other software. Engineering tend to need some math too, which LyX do very well. I would be very greatfull for a link or an attachment of such an template. What do you expect from such a template? If it is just some headings so the document is ready to "fill in", just make it yourself. It should take 5min if you know LyX. If you don't, it might takes longer but some practice is needed to get to know LyX. Helge Hafting
Re: using windows system fonts?

Hello,

When I go to the Document options there are only very few fonts available to

No. Using an arbitrary font is quite tricky. Some fonts are supported By
TeX, those are easier. Usually this involves putting
\usepackage{something} in the LyX preamble. Maybe you also have to
download the font package and install it.
If a font isn't already supported by TeX, then you need to roll your own
support for it. I have needed to do this one time, and it took me
several days to figure it all out from documentation and examples. Note
that TeX uses its own font system, so what you have installed in the
windows system doesn't matter at all. Still, there are lots of fonts
supported by TeX. Take a look at http://www.tug.dk/FontCatalogue/. The
fonts you find there can probably be used in LyX documents too without
too much trouble.
There is a variant of TeX called XeteX that support system fonts in an
easy way. But XeteX is not yet supported by LyX. Take a look at
wiki.lyx.org for some tips on how to use it - if you really need to use
those system fonts. LyX is not a good program for "going wild" with
fonts. It is focused on the kind of writing where you pick a sensible
font or two for a document, and stick to those.

libqt4-dev is installed. There doesn't seem to be one file; there are
several in /usr/share/lintian/overrides. Pointing configure to this
doesn't help. Here is config.log. It seems to have found several files
but at the end it fails.
I had to cut some of it because the server rejected it initially as too
big, but I hopeI've kept the important bits, which seem to come at the
end.

Hi Manveru, In an ideal world, I'd slam out content, and a publisher would take care of everything else, including marketing. I'd get between five and fifteen cents on the dollar, but they'd do such a good job marketing that I'd still come out better. Unfortunately, that NEVER was the case. Now there's a new factor -- PDF eBooks can be "printed" for no cost. The purchase of print books is a habit that will be changing during the next few years, as people change their paper book reading habit in favor of PDFs costing half as much for the same amount of information. Without the whole printing thing, and given the fact that publishers never did help much with marketing, there's very little the publisher or any other middleman can offer in the way of value added. They can help with proofreading/copy editing so the verbiage sounds better. But then again, I can hire a proofreader/copy editor. They can help with typography. But how much value does typography really add? My first book, "Troubleshooting: Tools, Tips and Techniques", was written in WordPerfect 5.0. I got a few complaints about that book, but they were content related. Nobody complained about the print. My second book, "Rapid Learning: Secret Weapon of the Successful Technologist", was written in MS Word. Everyone loves it, to this day I get email saying "I followed your instructions and got a job!", but I've had not a single comment about the book's typography. Not one. My following two print books, "Troubleshooting Techniques of the Successful Technologist" and "Manager's Guide to Troubleshooting", as well as all my eBooks, "28 Tales of Troubleshooting", "Troubleshooting: Just the Facts", "Learn Vim Tonight", and "Rapid Learning for the 21st Century", were written in LyX. Nobody said anything positive or negative about these books' typography or printing. I got a whole lot of feedback on content, but nothing on the way the books looked (excluding the covers -- I'm a lousy artist). My point is this. Yeah, it would be nice if I didn't have to deal with typography, but from the reader POV it's eclipsed by content. If I were considering putting time or money into typography, from a sales perspective I'd do much better to divert the time and money away from typography and into either content, advertising, marketing, research, or certainly a better cover and binding so that it would fit into a bookstore. If an author is smart enought to stick to one typeface, and stay away from making an artistic statement with his typography, and make his lines short enough

Please keep than on mind. Manveru, Perfection is very nice until it runs into economics. The ultimate example of your goals is William Morris's Kelmscott Press. Morris treated a printed book as a work of art. Kelmscott Press operated from 1891 to 1898, and produced 18,000 copies of 53 different books. The books were and are works of art. Few readers could afford them when they were printed; few collectors can afford them now. The Press ceased operations because Morris ran out of money. It never made a profit, never broke even, in spite of the high prices charged for its books. Software like LaTeX and LyX allows non-experts to approximate some of the goals of typographers like Morris without incurring his costs. The software solutions do not reach the standards of the best book designers and typographers, but they can get closer than many (most?) published books do. Les

It just showed greyed out areas on the 3 options to the right of the window (updates etc.), and nothing in the Source window where the latex code should appear. I then upgraded using the Altinstaller to 1.6.2 and again the View Source window worked the first time I ran Lyx, but now no longer works. I feel silly as I'm new to Lyx, but can't work this out.

Side Captions
Hello all,
I have been trying to create side captions for some of my figures in LyX, but
am having some problems.
Using:
LyX 1.6.1
Mac OS 10.5.6
DocumentClass: book (KOMA-script)
(all other document settings are default, aside from preamble, as noted below)
I am writing my thesis and have a compile.lyx document in which I include all
of my chapters as child documents, which are separate LyX files (I'll dub
individual.lyx). I have succeeded in the individual.lyx file to create a side
caption by including
\usepackage{sidecap}
in the Preamble in Document Settings and then using
\begin{SCfigure}
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.55\textwidth]%
{Figures/figure.png}% picture filename
\caption{ Captiony stuff }
\end{SCfigure}
to include the figure. individual.lyx compiles to pdf fine.
However, when I try to compile (to pdf) the compile.lyx file, I get the error:
File does not exist:
/var/folders/fq/fqrxQlvk2P8KFE+BYnDQyU+++Tl/-Tmp-/lyx_tmpdir.L10932/lyx_tmpfub0/Compile.pdf
I have included \usepackage{sidecap} in the preamble of the compile.lyx file as
well. When I comment out "\begin{SCfigure}...\end{SCfigure}" in the
individual.lyx, compile.lyx compiles successfully (sadly, obviously, minus the
figure).
(Side note: In the case of compiling DVI or PS, I get a LaTeX error claiming it
can't find the figure when compiling either the individual.lyx or compile.lyx
files - Does that have to do with my use of Figures/figure.png in the
\includegraphics tag?)
Is there any way for me to get side captions working using this format of a
compile.lyx file which includes the individual chapters of my thesis?
Thanks for any help, and let me know if there is any additional information
which I should provide.

moderncv no longer working in 1.5.6?
Hey all,
After much effort getting my moderncv CV to work in Lyx 1.5.3, I just
tried making some changes (now running 1.5.6 on intrepid) and LyX will
no longer generate a PDF.
The first error is:
\moderncvtheme
[grey,final]{classic}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
\moderncvtheme[
grey,final]{classic}
You're in trouble here. Try typingto proceed.
If that doesn't work, type X to quit.
Then for each section this error:
\subsection{Research Projects}
You have given more \span or & marks than there were
in the preamble to the \halign or \valign now in progress.
So I'll assume that you meant to type \cr instead.
I've attached the LyX file up to the first section error.
What has changed so much in Lyx between these versions?
Thanks,
B. Bogart

I like reading book, one of pleasures is taking nicely typeset and printed book, with all the art on the covers and so on. Here in Poland we have quite large number of nice editions and most e-books are received as poor quality "guides to life" - in our culture such kind of publication often do not fit to needs. They become somehow popular, as its quality is growing. Lot of them are published and sold by companies specialized with such publication. I do not know any example of such business model in Poland, as Steve successful have with his book for couple of years. I cannot tell from scientific point of view as I personally do not publish anything scientific related (some engineering stuff is published inside corporation I work for - in Word certainly), but belletristic book are available only through professional publishers and they become popular (if become) as effect of publications in press or by good marketing. Every county has different model, different traditions, different culture. I personally prefer books printed on paper. I used to be a passionate of Desktop Publishing some time ago, that is way I like to "protect" the typesetting traditions. It is important to me as though good music. -- Manveru jabber: manv...@manveru.pl gg: 1624001 http://www.manveru.pl
LyX to HTML?
Is there any good way to convert LyX (or LaTeX perhaps more to the point) to HTML? I do know LyX can export to HTML, but the result is not pretty; it looks so last century. Also, many packages seems to be stripped away (such as enumitem). There is no options to format the HTML to look nice. I tried to google for LaTeX to HTML converters, but it seems few are actively maintained. Perhaps hyperlatex would be an option? There is also elyxer, which produces nice looking output, but has too many missing features. Any ideas? I want to move all my word processing from MS Word to LyX, but one of the things that keeps me with Word is that it can do fair (not great, but fair) HTML conversion.

It appears to be new. eLyXer is indeed pretty new: I started playing with the idea in January for my own purposes, and have published it just a couple of weeks ago. What we can do is that you send me your document (you can Loremipsumize it as wished, although it will remain completely confidential) and I will try to make eLyXer work for you. That way if it works the whole community benefits; and if it is beyond my modest means, or you don't like the results, no harm done. Other LyX users have helped me a lot to make improvements, as you can see in the acknowledgements -- it could not have progressed so quickly from a custom personal tool to something more or less usable without them. I encourage other LyX users to do the same. That is after all the true Open Source way, isn't it? Thanks, Alex.

Hevea can be installed via macports, and it's easy then to define a converter in LyX that will go from latex to html.

I think that your customisation could be done through that. In the latest versions, the CSS is a separate file. Hevea produces a somewhat less detailed CSS, but it is included inline. tex4ht puts footnotes in separate files, which I don't like. I suppose that behaviour can be changed, but I don't know how to do it. Hevea only seems to work with the standard classes - at least it doesn't know about the memoir class. Again, that can probably be fixed - just not by me :-). Alan > > > > >
