troubles converting to pdf

I tried to convert my Ph.D. to pdf, using ae and aecompl to get vector cm fonts. I'm using the book class and I've got no problem when exporting to ps. However, when exporting to pdf, I've got three problems: - Whenever my document contains a completely blank page, acroread complains "There was

[This is not really a lyx question, although I'm confonted to in my use of lyx. Please direct me to another more appropriate list if necessary] I'm looking for a way to extract a figure from a .ps file to include it in lyx. I know I can print the file and scan the required figure ;-) or try a d

Itemize in table

Dear lyx users, I'm trying to have an itemize environement inside a table cell; I tried several things and I'm getting a little bit confused. - If I'm in a table cell, I cannot change the environment style - I tried to select "Use minipage" in the cell dialog, which allowed me to use environeme

"english" class option

I've made a very-quick-and-very-dirty class layout for article hermes, the class file for "Hermes Science Publication" (www.editions-hermes.fr). All I did was changing the second line of the layout file to give it a new name and use the right .cls file. For now, I do the remaining stuff in ERT.

latex output to eps

Hi everybody! I'm writing an article in the kluwer layout which is, of course, uncompatible with almost each and every latex package (thanks to Kluwer for this...) As I need the 'oz.sty' package (for Object-Z notation) in figures, I thought of latexing separate files with this package, putting

I'm using a cutomized book layout that I change quite often to add a new fonctionality (or debug one)... and I found that it would be very convenient to be able to reconfigure lyx from the command line lyx -reconfigure rather than launching it, selecting edit->reconfigure, quitting, and then

It's not really a lyx question, rather a latex one, I guess... but however, somebody might be able to help me... I'm beginning to write my Ph Dissertation, with a (slightly cutomized) book layout. It's in three part, but I would like the chapters to be numbered without getting back to one when
