Hello Everybody,
I just installed MacTeX and Lyx 1.6.2 on my Mac, and then I typed in
some English, along with a few Chinese characters. Everything
displays very nicely in LyX. For each group of Chinese characters I
used the menu setting Edit/Text Style/Customized.../ and set the
Language to Chinese.
Finally, I clicked upon the "View PDF (pdflatex)" icon, which spins
the Mac's "beach ball" for a while (many tens of seconds), and then
the following error message results, apparently once for each Chinese
character:
Font C10/fs/m/n/10/18=gsfs 1418 at 10.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM)
file not
Font \C10 /fs/m/n/10=nullfont not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not
found.
For each error message it gives a description, something like this....
I wasn't able to read the size data for this font, so I will ignore
the font specification.
[Wizards can fix TFM files using TFtoPL/PLtoTF.]
You might try inserting a different font spec; e.g., type `|/
font<same font id>=<substitute font name>'.
Does this mean that I somehow do not have Chinese fonts in the MacTex
distribution, and that my issues are not at all related to LyX but
MacTex?
Any help would be most welcome, as LyX is a great tool, but I really
need to be able to use Chinese characters....
Many thanks,
kgk
