Can't see any eps in exported ps file
Hi! After upgrading my system from Suse 6.4 to 7.2 including an update from ghostscript 5.50 to 6.51 LyX 1.1.6fix2 no longer displays any eps files. I read about a problem displaying eps images with gs 6.5, but (if I am correct) this should be fixed in 6.51. Right now my main problem is _not_ that I cant see the images within lyx, but that they are also missing in the exported ps file. I tried downgrading from 6.51 to 5.50 but that also doesnt solve the problem (now I'm back to 6.51). I really hope that this isn't a FAQ - I made some research, but the only thing I found was the problem with gs 6.50. Any ideas where to start looking? Thanks in advance, Martin

Changing default font of equations
I use ps2pdf to create pdf documents. It works very well (especially with the ps2pdf from gs6.0) except for the font of the equations, for which I get a pixelated type 3 font in the resulting pdf-file. I set the default font to times but that doesn't affect the equations. Does anybody know how to chance the default font of the equations so that ps2pdf creates type 1 fonts? I know about pdflatex but I'm just to lazy to keep all my images in two formats (eps for latex and gif for pdflatex) - or did I miss something and pdflatex can now handle eps images too? Thanks for any reply, Martin

In your preamble add: \usepackage{pslatex} this fixes everything to use type 1 fonts from the default 35 fonts (IIRC). Alternaively there is a similar package specifically for the math fonts: \usepackage{mathptm} Allan. (ARRae) Thanks for your answer! If I use \usepackage{pslatex} it will display perfect in KGhostView, gives me an error message about a missing font (symbol) in Acrobat Reader for Linux, it shows me the doc but some characters are missing and in AR for Windows it won't open at all. If I use \usepackage{mathptm} it displays perfect again in KGhostView, same problems as above in AR for Linux and nearly perfect in AR for Windows - only brackets, integral/root signs are pixelated. I think I can live with that - many thanks and (little bit late): Happy Easter! Martin

Re: Rotating tables and caption
Try to use the lscape package. Then add \begin{landscape} in front of your table and \end{landscape} after it. Be warned: the text will not be rotated in you dvi-preview but it will look right in ps-preview.

Continous numbering of formulas
Hi there! I am writing a document with book (koma-script) style and I need the equations numbered continous across different chapters (1, 2, 3, 4, ... instead of 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2, ..). I added \renewcommand{\theequation}{\thesection.\arabic{equation}} to the preamble, but then I get something like 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, ... What do I have to add to the preamble so that the equation counter is NOT reset at each chapter? Thanx in advance, Martin Please CC to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That's what the command you wrote above is doing. LyX (read LaTeX) does what you want by default. Just remove all the \renewcommand lines from your LyX file. I´m sorry, but this is not the way it works here... At least in the book (koma-script) style equations are numbered by chapter and equation. I got only two lines in my preamble: \usepackage{amsfonts} \renewcommand{\theequation}{\arabic{equation}} If I remove the renewcommand then equations are numbered like CHAPTER.EQUATION; with the renewcommand the numbered like 1,2,3,4,... but the counter is reset at each chapter! Any ideas?
