Can't see any eps in exported ps file

2001-10-29 Thread Martin Vonwald

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

2000-04-24 Thread Martin Vonwald

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}

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!

Re: Rotating tables and caption

1999-10-26 Thread Martin Vonwald

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.

Hope this helps, Martin

 Hello,

 Hopefully a simple question; is there a way to rotate a table and its

Continous numbering of formulas

1999-09-25 Thread Martin Vonwald

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

 Hehe, my problem was that I actually wanted to have reset
 counter at the beginning of each chaper. 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?

 You just have to install another printer to your Windoze box, choose a PS
 Printer and specify its output to a file by default. Now all you got to do
 is print any documento or graphic you want to convert to PostScript through
 this PS printer driver. The output PS file can be edited with any Corel,

 can use it with LyX!!

Good idea! The best printer driver for this is the Generic Postscript driver directly
