Big Thanks! was: how to stop TeX and LaTeX from being typeset with the special logo?
A big thanks to everybody for the quick, useful replies. There is no doubt that one of the best things about LyX is the LyX community. -- Rich On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 2:58 AM, Helge Hafting wrote: > Richard Talley wrote: >> >> LyX automagically typesets words like TeX and LaTeX using the special >> logo for those words. >> >> How do I turn this behavior off? > > I see you already got some answers for how this is done for the entire > document.

I see you already got some answers for how this is done for the entire document. If you want to do this for particular instances of LyX/TeX/LaTeX, just "Insert->Formatting->Ligature Break" somewhere inside the word you want to protect. Or insert anything else that don't produce output, such as an empty TeX (ERT) box. Helge Hafting

Alternatively, insert to the preamble
\def\LyX{LyX}
\def\LaTeX{LaTeX}

It is especially annoying if you copy and paste such text from the PDF. With
xpdf, you will get
I love L X
Y
but dislike this auto LaT X logo.

I remember the User Guide to use some invisible character inside LaTeX to
prevent this.
If it should apply to the whole document, you can als redefine
renewcommand{\LyX}{LyX}
renewcommand{\TeX}{TeX}
renewcommand{\LaTeX}{LaTeX}
in the LaT X preamble.

There are a couple of places, such as You can press Ctrl-L to enter ERT mode and type TeX into the ERT inset. This will send "TeX" straight to LaTeX without LyX doing any funny processing. -- John C.

how to stop TeX and LaTeX from being typeset with the special logo?
LyX automagically typesets words like TeX and LaTeX using the special logo for those words. How do I turn this behavior off? There are a couple of places, such as an instruction to navigate to /Applications/TeX, where I want the words to appear more like they actually do in the computer interface. (I do *not* want to type /Applications/Tex as that does not match what is on the screen.) -- Rich
