Hallo Günter, thank you for your kind and helpful advices. 1. your "includeonly" variant I've understood. I think it will work. 2. your second variant I don't understand: > However, I would rather print the last 50 pages of the combined document to > a file and upload this. What do you mean by 'print to a file'? In the moment I use LyX -> pdflatex for to produce the big PDF. So what is your suggestion to produce a PDF of the last 50 p.? 3. > In any case, you may have to add some advanced LaTeX code to restart > the page numbers etc. or live with the appendix document starting at > 801. This should be no problem for me, because I love Latex code :-) Thank you very much - bernhard -- Homepage: https://www.mb-schiekel.de/ GnuPG: http://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net/ posteo.de: SSL-Verschluesselung + Oekostrom signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

After a first run which includes all sources (to get the references right), you may exclude the main document and re-compile. However, I would rather print the last 50 pages of the combined document to a file and upload this. In any case, you may have to add some advanced LaTeX code to restart the page numbers etc. or live with the appendix document starting at 801.

Besides beeing more general, it saves us from having to decide which "documentclass" the "no class" should get or if we should raise an error with any attempt to compile this "no class"-document. A "don't warn about different documentcalss" button in the Isert>File>Child Document pop-up seems an easy thing to add.
