Re: Remove the automatically added amssymb
Thanks a lot to both of you. I tested both of the solutions and they all works
well, at least for me. So I’ll make a summary here so you can help me to post
this into the mail archive to help others
The provides a polished fonts for many magazines, although it’s not
free. However, it may conflict with , which is automatically called by
LyX if needed. You may get the error “LaTeX Error: Command \Bbbk already
defined.” Here is the solution to this problem:
(Recommended) add the option when you call the as:
\usepackage[noamssymbols]{mtpro2}.
If you get other problems due to the conflict between the two, you can fool LyX
not to call the amssymb anymore by add following in LyX at >document settings >
local layout:
Format 35
Provides amssymb 1
(Small Trick) Repalce the amssymb.sty in your local file with an empty text
file. When you submit you tex file, remove the command about amssymb.
Thanks a lot and best wishes.

I am not sure this is safe for every case. I think using mtpro2's native
solution cannot be wrong.
Moreover having it in the Wiki does not harm.
In the upcoming LyX 2.1 you can uncheck amssymb but 2.1 is not released yet.

Actually, mtpro2 has been the official font of many IEEE magazines. Don't give up that quickly. Please help to improve the situation as others will run into the same situation as you. I googled a bit and found that for example the beamer document class solved this by providing an option: https://bitbucket.org/rivanvx/beamer/commits/24853e6b98cf I googled further and the mtpro2 manual seems to state a solution in sec. 2.15: "The definitions of the AMS symbols consume a huge amount of TEX re- sources, so you can disable them through the package option noamssymbols." Can you please try this out by adding noamssymbols to the document class options field in the document settings of your document? Does it then work? If yes, can you please add it to our Wiki page?: http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/IEEE (LyX is free and lives form the fact that many users help to get it better!) thanks for your help and patience Uwe

Yes, when I add some math equations including ”\mathbb{R}”, the amssymb is
loaded. However, I don’t need the amssymb because I’m using the package mtpro2.
But mtpro2 is only a font. Are you sure it would work without amssymb? To check that export a small
example your file as LaTeX. Open the LaTeX file with a text editor and remove there the line with
amssymb. Finally compile the file manually using a console with the command
pdflatex yourfile.tex
(assuming your filename is "yourfile.tex")
I bet it won't work. If you have problems, send a small example LyX file.

Re: Remove the automatically added amssymb
Have a look at ticket 5058 ( http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/5058), which I filled some time back. I attached a module ( http://www.lyx.org/trac/attachment/ticket/5058/noamssymb.module) that fools LyX into thinking amssymb is already loaded. Paul

Can you give me any suggestion or help about how to remove this? LyX only adds amssymb if it is needed to compile the file. Can you provide a _small_ LyX testfile where you think that amssymb is not necessary? regards Uwe
