Calibri Font
Hello, I am a newbie to Lyx and I am using the Manchester PhD template on the LyX website. Before LyX all my figures and text used Calibri font, it would be great if I could use this in my LyX rendering. I have been on the web and found several options however the solutions are dependant on several modules being present - what is required for Lyx please? Thanks in advance ( if I am addressing the wrong groups [please let me know) Brian Kneller -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
Help Please
Hi thanks for the responses they have been most useful. I have a few questions
below:
I have decided to use the Manchester Uni thesis format as its very near the
London Uni version. I think I am running into unnecessary difficulties because
I am using my existing directory structure and Lyx has a preferred in
/Library/Application Support/Lyx-2.3. I have not found a preferred structure
is there one?
I am stripping out the bits I don’t want from the Thesis Template such as
figures , headings , labels etc all have an index of some form where should
these be stored & how do I ensure these are reset or can I copy the template
into the template subdirectory , which is currently empty and then start a new
doc from this.
I have loaded revtex4-1 into the shared area subdir but cannot see it from the
Doc/settings in the lyx main menu should it be there?
I like the use of Letterine for the first char of a section, how is this
\lettrine{I}{n}and the following invoked :-- Figure~\ref{shuffle_diagram};
\label{Shuffle} and where is the definitions of these –I have not found (yet)
where this is described an indication where I could look would be helpful. I
suspect they are under the Lyx-Code environment in the dropdown top lefthand
side of menu – but there is no list below it.
Sorry for these simple questions but I need to complete this soon
Many Thanks

Convert Mac Word and Thesis to LyX
Hi, I hope I am in the correct space. — I have prepared a thesis for a PhD (75K words)and approx 80 figures, the text in Mac-word and the figures are in Adobe Illustrator so I have some flexibility in Format. Also there are many references. I hold all my references and comments on them in Bookends. I regret not looking at lyx/latex and using them much earlier so I am looking for an easy way to migrate this info into Lyx and I am also looking for a Thesis template. I have dowloaded and installed Lyx on my Macbook Pro (Mavericks) and been thro the intro etc. I am trying to minimise the effort in migration to Lyx so any comments and advice is most welcome. Thanks in anticipation Regds Brian Kneller -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
