I tried with small new documents, guide documents etc.: no way. Any idea? See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/52630. There are apparently incorrect paths hardcoded into the version of TeX4HT that comes with MiKTeX 2.7. I tried hacking the .env file, to no avail. Andreas Hofer's workaround works for me, though: create C:\tex4ht\texmf\ and copy the entire tex4ht directory from under MiKTeX 2.7 into that (creating C:\tex4ht\texmf\tex4ht\ and assorted subdirectories). /Paul

There is a special script oolatex that creates the .odt file. I don't know how it works on Windows. Cheers, Alan Thank you, Hesham It's basically the same on Windows. You need oolatex.exe and TeX4HT. Assuming you are using MiKTeX 2.7, you should make sure that the tex4ht package and the miktex-tex4ht-bin-2.7 package are installed. The MiKTeX bin directory should also contain oolatex.exe. If it does not, try running initexmf --mklinks in a DOS shell and see if that creates oolatex.exe. /Paul

Export to Open document
Hi, I am trying to export a lyx document into an open document, I press export, but then no files are created. Can someone help? The reason is I am trying to get the file into an MS Word file so my supervisor can open it. Thank you, Hesham
