outside paragraph

2000-11-17 Thread Rosen

Hi
While using LyX I noticed something strange.
Simple article class, paper size A4 with   very
small margins and some paragraphs with text.
The paragrhs are with block alignement.  That
is OK. When I go to .dvi or .ps  previewer, sometimes
the text goes outside the block like this two last lines 
of my text.
Changing size of margins helps,but not always.
Using geometry package also helps me to solve
this problem sometimes.Is there default solution?
Or I'm doing something wrong? 
I'm using Lyx 1.1.5fix1 on RH6.0

10x in advance

\nopagebreak   in tex (red)

write between the two paragraphs to prevent a pagebreak behind the
first paragraph. 
write in a line to prevent a pagebreak at the end of the line.

how to prevent a page break?

2000-11-17 Thread Christopher Jones

I'd like latex not to split a paragraph environment at the end of a page. Zum
Beispiel, I'd like the "address" environment, which has protected breaks
separating lines of the address, not to break up the record.

For enhanced the possibilities of pdflatex using transitions effects
between pages and pauses I use ppower4 postprocessor
(http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/support/ppower4/readme.html)
and I have created a foiltex-based layout and a transitions.inc files in
order to support the capabilities of ppower4. You can find one example,
the layout, and the inc files at

http://www.iit.upco.es/~oscar/download/Presentation.tgz

and the resulting pdf file at

http://www.iit.upco.es/~oscar/download/presentation.pdf

In the tgz file you can also find a lyx2pdf script (BTW it would be nice
to include a -pp4 option in Steffen Evers' lyx2pdf script ) to run all
the stuff, you must execute:

# lyx2pdf -pp4 presentation

and that's all.

It is presumed that ppower4, and a recent java distribution, are
installed.

You can see a more mathematical oriented pdf example at

I believe you have to do a process called color separation on the
postscript file. Try looking in freshmeat, altought i think you may have
hard time finding suitable software, at least for free. Adobe probably
sells some.

Well this is probably because you (Frank) want a caption for the longtable.
There exists a trick right now to do this which I have already told a few
time on this list, have a look at the attached file.

I hope to resove this problem cleaner in the upcoming 1.2.0 version, so
the version after 1.1.6 (in a few month ;).

For Herbert: Can you point me how to produce multipage floats, IMO this
 could be interesting as feature for LyX.

ImageMagick convert or mogrify allow to control the colorspace.

I read here somthing like:

This is in a file which uses seminar class and graphicx package, so
I guess that rgb might be replaced by cmyk...
