This is not an option if I have to mark every single english word and set the language to english. Impossible... or can this be "filtered" with some find & replace actions?

Want to write Chinese in LyX? Please give me some feedback on this HOWTO
I've worked out a little update for the XeTeX page on the LyX Wiki. (http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/XeTeX) After obtaining feedback from prospective users of Chinese or other languages that require non-roman character sets, I'd like to add this to the LyX wiki page on Xetex. In case you don't know, XeTeX offers a program "xelatex" a replacement for the "pdflatex" program. Xelatex creates a pdf and in the TeX document one can include all Unicode fonts that are available on the system that are in the OpenType and true type formats. I've posted the pdf output from a lyx file that demonstrates several different font choices. http://pj.freefaculty.org/latex/xetex-3.pdf http://pj.freefaculty.org/latex/xetex-3.lyx The title of my document is "Getting Reasonable Chinese Characters in LATEX Documents". I suppose I should have LyX in the title, but the first drafts of this were written in Emacs. -- Paul E. Johnson Professor, Political Science 1541 Lilac Lane, Room 504 University of Kansas
Book (AMS), quote* getting indented
Hi all: I'm trying to use Book (AMS) class, and in it, the quote* text seems to be getting indented at the start of every new para. Actually I don't want the indent, because I've not implemented it throughout in the book. Question: how do I achieve this? Many thanks!

Yes, you can either use a non-breakable space between words as described in sec. 3.5.1 of the UserGuide or put a word into a special box as described in sec. 3.9.2 of the UserGuide. regards Uwe

LyX (Windows) Math Symbols do not display (font problem?)
Hi all, there seems to be no relevant documentation about this issue at least for Windows users (in my case Windows XP pro SP3 32bit). When installing on different machines, some math symbols are not displayed (the "\latexcode" is displayed instead). E.g. on my latest try the following symbols were not displayed: \asymp \models \succ (there are many more examples) the source for that part was simply: $\asymp\models\succ$ And all I see in Lyx is: "asymp \models succ" (without quotes and in the familiar brown color font reserved for un-WYSIWYG'ed symbols) Just to stress the weirdness, the following symbols ARE all displayed correctly (here is the source code): $\left\{ \Uparrow\nu\angle\precsim\supsetneqq\right\} $ I have installed (in windows system) all the Bakoma fonts that are located in \Resources\fonts, reinstalled Lyx countless times, installed full MikTex separately, and did all updates for it. On other machines, strangely enough, I have the same problem - but with DIFFERENT symbols... does anyone have a clue as to why this might be happening? thanks! -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/LyX-%28Windows%29-Math-Symbols-do-not-display-%28font-problem-%29-tp2182681p2182681.html Sent from the LyX - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Installing CocoAspell and Aspell both
Hello, as I have problems with Aspell for a long time now and I don´t get them solved, I would like to test CocoAspell and see, if this works better for me. Is it possible to install them both on the same Mac with OSX or do I have to remove Aspell first? Best* Jess
Re: About reimporting from latex
Hmm. I think this is a consequence of modularization of the AMS files. You did this in 1.6.x, yes? Sorry, I forgot to give my settings: lyx 1.6.1 installed in ubuntu 8.10 via backport repository, with no customization and a freshly created default ~/.lyx We'll have to fix this, if so. If you do, please let me know what I should do while waiting for the fix in the repository. Until the fix will be done and available on the repository, for the moment I "demodulized" amsart: I copied amsart.layout in ~/.lyx/layouts, then I removed the line DefaultModule theorems-ams and I inserted in its place the content of theorems-ams.module. Did I do it in the right way? I think so, because it works... ;-)) Fabio
Re: texlive2008 Debian + any linux distro

You need to check how in your Linux distribution LyX is coupled in terms of its requirements for TeX packages. For Debian users, LyX does not "require" any TeX packages. If your distro does, obviously, leave thoses packages which are necessary for LyX installed. Using the TexLive 2008 Package Manager is very easy and should be considered a serious advantage in terms of convince, updating and recovery of a complex production system that should be independent from the distribution's package manager that controls your operating system.
