Re: Lyx 2 beta: GUI forgets sansfont and typewriterfont

Beta 2 still has the bug, furthermore, it always crashes. Everytime. After PDF creation for instance. Very often. Windows 7 x64, Miktex, ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-2.0 ... -Small.exe

Lyx 2 beta: GUI forgets sansfont and typewriterfont

I'm using Xetex as a documet default.

In the document properties, Lyx 2 beta 1 does not save the typewriter and sans serif font and always sets it to "default". Furthermore, it sets the sizes of both always to 10%.

Re: Best way to use Latex source files?

So frustrating. I've installed ALL packages from ctan. I tried "Curriculum vitae (europe)". Compiled with pdflatex. Now 4 error messages. Option clash, undefined control sequence, missing number, illegal unit of measure.

Tried xelatex as output then: "europasslogo not found"-. Interesting. Miktex ...

Re: Best way to use Latex source files?

I don't get it. I've tried his cv now: http://nitens.org/taraborelli/cvtex
Downloaded the .tex file, installed the Linux Libertine font, applied "xelatex cv_libertine.tex" - tons of error messages. First it won't find a Monaco font. After resolving this, error messages go on.

I then tried to build ...

Best way to use Latex source files?

Hi,

I'm new to Lyx. I'm using beta 2.0 and Miktex. Whats the best way to handle latex files? Should I rather edit the "source code" of the latex file?
If I import http://jblevins.org/cv.tex as a Latex source, Lyx presents me chaos and pdflatex will come up with hundreds of errors, which would take ...

Oops, thanks. I was confused by other aspects and didn't see the easy solution. I'll try not to flood this forum with silly questions again.

"expl3.sty not found"

Hi,

I'm using Lyx 2 Beta + latest Miktex 2.9 which have good Xetex support. But it does not work here. What am I missing? On another machine, Xetex works, but I have installed every package which came with the Miktex distribution.

This is XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.2-0.9997.4 (MiKTeX 2.9 ...

PDF Preview not working

Hello,

I'm using LyX 1.6.8 on Windows 7 Pro x64. Today I installed Adobe Reader X - and it doesn't work with LyX any more: Adobe Reader does not open the generated PDF after you created the PDF with LyX. It only shows a welcome dialog like "Open last files - Acrobat services - etc".

First idea of ...
