Re: need working example of copier to customize pdf output

[Paul Johnson]

Oh, heck. I broke the regular export of the one-page at a time PDF
when I added my copier for the 4 sheets on one page.

Details below, please advise.

When this finally seemed to work, I was so happy.  However, I see now
I've broken the pdf export.

The weird thing is that LyX asks me if I want to replace the old pdf
version, and I say yes, it still does not get copied.

Just now, I worked on lecture notes and exported to PDF(Beamer). I end up with
-rw-r--r--  1 337226 Mar  2 00:57 Regression-MultipleInputs-lecture-2-2x2.pdf
-rw-r--r--  1  56429 Mar  2 00:55 Regression-MultipleInputs-lecture-2.lyx
-rw-r--r--  1543209 Sep 29 12:17 Regression-MultipleInputs-lecture-2.pdf

I do get the 4 slides on 1 page output, the one with 2x2 on the end.
The lyx file is saved, but last semester's pdf is stuck there.

Here's what I'm using now.

In .lyx/preferences, I add:

\format "pdf5" "pdf" "PDF (Beamer)" "" "evince" "" "document,vector,menu=export"

\converter "pdflatex" "pdf5" "pdflatex $$i" "latex=pdflatex"

\copier pdf5 "pdfcopier.sh \"$$i\" \"$$o\""

And here's "pdfcopier.sh"

#!/bin/bash
INFILE="$1";
pdfnup --nup 2x2  --frame true --suffix '2x2' --batch "$INFILE";

Inside LyX, I can Export to PDF(Beamer) and it does export the file
with the 2x2 format, and the name is set correctly.
.
What do you think?

ModernCV and Section Bibliography Problems

[Danny Parker]

Sorry for the double post but I forgot the files in the original one.

I'm trying to make a CV with different sections for Journals, conferences,
etc in LyX 2.0.  I'm trying to follow the example shown
here but
using the modernCV class. I can run the example code fine but when I do it
using my document I get an error "found unknown 'thebibliography'
environment".  After digging into that it seems that document class or some
package is interfering.  I've tried clicking the natbib option but that did
not clear things up.  I'm at a lost of what to do next.  My files are
included below.  Any help would be appreciated.

to be that way...

This is not a feature --- it's a bug :)

Hauke--it's not obious. You have to right-click on LyX.app, then "show
package contents", and navigate to Resources/examples. The file
example_raw.lyx is one of many.

This feature of LyX on Mac is not very user-friendly, in my opinion.
Some templates are only accessible this way, too.

Hi Hauke, please always say which version of LyX you are using.
When you go to open, is there a button that is called "Examples" ? For me, it 
is in the upper-right corner next to a button called "Documents". I can also 
activate that button by pressing alt+e. Does either the button or the 
key-combination alt+e work for you?

Re: Page numbers for the bibliography in book(AMS) document class.

[UD]

On the first page of the chapter the command: \thispagestyle{myheadings} 
puts the page number in the upper right corner, but at the beginning of 
the bibliography that command does nothing

Do chapters in AMS books generally put the page number at the bottom 
on the first page of the chapter? It is common to use a different page 
style for the first page of a chapter, and the bibliography is 
generated, I will guess, as a \chapter*. (That's what most books do.)
