Andre,
Thanks for your reply. It finally occurred to me to look at the html

The header info contained a reference to a stylesheet. This turned out
to be an external file with an extension of .css (cascading style
sheets) that
Lyx 1.1.3 is producing great PS output with indented paragraphs and no
line skip between them. Pdflatex produces the same output in PDF format
(indented paragraphs with no line skip).
Latex2html, however, takes the same .tex file that was used by pdflatex
and produces html code with no paragraph
Thanks indeed, all you developers. I am working on my second novel using LyX. I

scalable fonts for the bitmapped.
Hi, plowing along trying to get pdf files of a reasonable size. So far I have
been unable to force dvips to use Type 1 scalable fonts which, reportedly,

file which I get using dvips in the normal configuration). I have the
Thierry, Reuben,
Thanks a lot. That's a big help.
All,
Is there a way to convert LyX output to Adobe PDF? Without going through ASCII
export (and losing curly quotes)? LyX is marvelous for writing and printing.
Now if I can find a way to transfer files to non-LyXers, all will be well.
