Well, instead of a single \parbox inside the \rotatebox , you could use 3 smaller ones: {\rotatebox{90}{% \parbox{10cm}{% \raggedleft\textcolor{black}{\bfseries\scshape\thechapter.\leftmark}% }% \hspace{2cm}% \parbox{4cm}{\centering\color{red!70!black} company name}% \hspace{2cm}% \parbox{10cm}{\rag...

perhaps \vphantom is what you're really after: \documentclass[11pt,letterpaper,twoside]{book} \usepackage{lmodern} \usepackage{amsmath} %\setlength{\jot}{\baselineskip} \newcommand*\bigstrut{\vphantom{\frac{A^2}{y^2}}} \begin{document} Blabla: \begin{gather} \bigstrut x^2 - \frac{1}{2} \, x = 3, \\ ...

Well, I'm not a LyX user, but it sounds like it runs ⋅ pdfLaTeX (probably more than once to resolve TOC/LOF/LOT) ⋅ BibTeX ⋅ makeindex (or vice versa) ⋅ pdfLaTeX (again, probably more than once) When BibTeX is run, it creates a .bbl file which is read by the ne...

I'm totally guessing now, but it has "\makeindex" in the middle of the package imports. I don't see a problem with that. \makeindex basically creates a file handle for the .idx file, opens it for writing, (re)defines \index so it will write into this .idx file, and lets itself to `don't-d...

Well, if I would try s.th. like that, I'd use the parent's values to create the indent for the current entry, e.g., \cftsecindent + \cftsecnumwidth for \cftsubsecindent . Should you later decide on, say, a different indent for section entries, you'll just need to change it in one place (and not seve...

0.5\baselineskip, perhaps?

Well, the index processor can't get confused, it only ouputs what it is told by way of the .idx file. The only ways I can see to get a wrong page number in the index are ⋅ some weird changes in page numbering ⋅ some material gets inserted before the \index command in question, af...

That't because the title argument to \chapterlinesformat (#3) contains an internal paragraph break, hence the new line. Since you want to put the number into the margin, try \renewcommand*{\chapterlinesformat}[3]{% #3\marginline{\usekomafont{disposition}\usekomafont{chapter}#2}% } You don't need to ...

well, if tabularx is needed, try \documentclass{article} \usepackage[USenglish,ngerman]{babel}%%% The main language is German \usepackage{lipsum} \usepackage{tabularx} \usepackage{xcolor} \pagestyle{empty} \newlength\drulesep% separation between the two lines of adouble rule \newlength\druleshift% d...
