It may help to have a look a the "enumitem" module that enhances enumeration
environments.
The appended gm-lists.module requires and uses enumitem to define
additional list types. It is a bit dated, though.

Well, then I opened the TeX-file in TeXShop (I dont have TeX Studio). In the prefs there is no build, and I did not know ho to continue from here. Then I just tried: export – XML text This produced an XML-file. I do not know if the file would work, because I do not know how to continue from here. Did Could I also use calibre for converting from XML to ePub? Thanks, best Jess Looks like you have a problem with your installation. I would try to reinstall (and if problems remain to a Tools > Reconfigure and open Terminal and run sudo texhash). Anyway, to your question: Calibre is free to download, so you can download it and then add the xml-file to Calibre (Add book…) and then convert to EPUB (Convert books…). If it works or not should depend on the status the XML-file, but that is outside my knowledge (I was just happy when the recipe I posted worked ;-) All the best! Anders

Re: No Integrals?
This is great, Paul-- I installed the fonts as you described and now everything is fine. Not clear why it wasn't done by default. Later I'll try the Texlive PPA too. Thanks a lot-- Ehud On 4/27/19 2:12 AM, Paul A. Rubin wrote: On 4/26/19 5:17 PM, UD Kap wrote: Thank you all for your speedy responses. I suspect that Pavel has fingered it-- I don't see any LYX folder in the /usr/share/fonts folder. At least on Mint, there is no .../lyx folder there. The problem is on the Lyx screen-- the output looks OK. I installed from Liviu's ppa. Liviu's PPA has a package named fonts-lyx that will create a folder /usr/share/fonts/truetype (if it does not already exist) and then put a subfolder named 'lyx' under that. In /usr/share/fonts/truetype/lyx, you should find 11 TrueType font files (.ttf extension). If that's not there, you just need to install the fonts-lyx package from the PPA. It is likely, in addition, that my TexLive installation is at fault-- I installed TL from the Mint/Ubuntu repositories, rather than from the VERY CONFUSED Texlive site. The disappointing result is that tlmgr does not work right, or not at all. I get TeXLive from a different PPA: https://launchpad.net/~jonathonf/+archive/ubuntu/texlive. (He also has LyX distributions there, but I've been sticking with Liviu's PPA and have no regrets.)
