Re: 14 point type (solved)
My bad. Italics show if in Documents>Settings>Fonts, rather than "default," I set to sans serif to noto sans and sans/typewriter to noto mono.

Re: 14 point type (solved)
John, that is easily solved... ...not the age, of course :-)-O Documents -> Settings -> Formats -> Output Format/Default Output Format: Pull Down -> PDF (LuaTeX) On the Bottom Right: OK Then you look for the eyes in the toolbar on the top, and if you click those, or run Control-R (I think, on the Mac it's Command-R) it'll generate PDF. If you work off of a template, do it there and whenever you copy it for a new document it's already there. I can confirm the italic issue on the beamer format (ie doing a presentation) but I can't confirm it on Koma's letter and article formats. when I run lyx --help I see: [...] -e [--export] fmt where fmt is the export format of choice. Look in Tools->Preferences->File Handling->File Formats->Short Name to see which parameter (which differs from the format name in the File->Export menu) should be passed. [...] There I found stuff like pdf5 (which is the one from LuaLaTex) and some others. So, when I run for i in 2 3 4 5 7 8 do lyx -f -E pdf$i test.$i.pdf test.lyx done lyx -f -e pdf test.lyx I get the enclosed (all possible?) PDFs. I have also enclosed the source of the MWE for your convenience. So perhaps you want to send me (off list) the two liner with a non working emphasized word for testing. If I get it before 19:00 European time I can play with it on the plane back to Namibia. greetings, el On 2019-07-06 02:54 , John White wrote: > Cause I am old.
