No ligatures in Palatino?

2011-04-06 Thread Daniel CLEMENT
Dear list members,

I have been using the palatino font for a while. But I only recently
noticed that, in documents using this font, no ligatures appeared (e.g.
in ff, fi, ...).

However, the various dashes (--, ---) do get linked properly. Aren't
these "ligatures"?

What do you think of this? I searched the WiKi and the list archive, and
I came across this message:

http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg45849.html

...but it's pretty old, and perhaps no longer relevant.

I hope it's not a FAQ. Once again, thanks for your help.

Re: XeTeX (No Math!)

2011-04-06 Thread Rob Oakes
Hi Richard,

There is a known bug in older versions of XeTeX which can cause problems with 
math symbols in some fonts. The bug report for Ubuntu can be found here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-bin/+bug/364627

I was able to fix the problem by editing a configuration file:

/etc/texmf/dvipdfm/dvipdfmx.cfg

Comment out: "f pdftex.map"
Uncomment: "f dvipdfm.map" 

I haven't had any trouble with newer versions (either that shipped in TeX Live 
2009, or 2010).

Cheers,

Rob

weird footnote symbol

2011-04-06 Thread Junchao Zhang
Hi,
  I use Lyx 1.6.9 to write my document. It has two footnotes. When I export
it to pdf,  both footnotes look like " 9* The work is supported ... ".
  I don't know where is the 9 from. I only want a simple *.
  Previouly, I didn't have this problem  It happens after I installed some
packages, added the following in the preamble.

\usepackage{url}
\setlength\tabcolsep{1.2pt}
\usepackage{slashbox}


  How can I get rid of the annoying '9'?

  Thanks

Downloaking MikTeX failed, installer using wrong download path?

2011-04-06 Thread Matt Seitz (matseitz)
Does the LyX installer for Windows need to change the path for
downloading miktex from "/get/systems/win32/miktex/setup" to
"/systems/win32/miktex/setup"?

 

When I tried to install LyX 1.6.9-2 for Microsoft Windows using the
standard installer
(ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.6.9/LyX-1.6.9-2-Installer.exe), the
installer reported the error "Downloading MikTeX failed".  

 

I reran the installer while taking a network trace and saw the following
error:

I then went to the miktex web site and checked it's download page.  I
didn't see alan.smcvt.edu listed as a mirror, so I tried using
"ctan.mackichan.com", again while taking a network trace.  This time, I
saw:

I then went to http://alan.smcvt.edu and clicked the "Browse the

There have been several lengthy discussions on this topic, and the
consensus was that it made little sense to depart from LaTeX defaults;
people unhappy with the default font should choose a different one.

SV: Crash in rc_2

2011-04-06 Thread Ingar Pareliussen
Hi

I just tried some more small things:

You do not need to change the language to anything other than 
away from default. Removing the \gui_language from
the .lyx/preferences makes it seg.fault on save as:

#
# 2nd MISC SUPPORT SECTION ##
#

\gui_language nynorsk

also changing the language the first time seems to  give the following 
error sometimes:
"Application asked to unregister timer 0x3604 which is not registered in 
this thread. Fix application."
If this is related I do not know, I tried to find out when it is triggered, but 
were not able to find an absoulte

I understand. Would it be possible to have the tooltip show the keys instead of 
complete citations?

I think most people prefer to see the complete citation, as it's 
generally more informative. (Many people have auto-generated keys, and 
they have little idea what they are.) You can always see the keys a 
different way, but not all the citations together.

Alejandro.

They are now available at the ftp server (
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-2.0/rc2).
But they won't solve your problem.

I've found this bug when I installed Adobe Acrobat X also (when you click to
view PDF, the Adobe Acrobat app starts as well but the file is not oppened),
but it is not exactly related with Adobe Acrobat installation.

I already found what causes this error:
* Select Tools > Preferences > File Handling > File Formats;
* In Format, select the PDF format you use (eg. PDF (pdflatex);
* Change Viewer property to Custom and type "auto" (it probably should be
set to "pdfview", so just modify this value)
* Save and test.
This will make things work as expected.

Anyway, it will be great if someone point why this happens.
I don't have an idea what this option really do and why it prevents Acrobat
X to open the file (note that previous versions of Acrobat do not experience
this problem).
I want to open a ticket regarding this issue, but I really don't know what
to write.

I am forwarding this message to devel list to read what they say.
