Error exporting to Open Document Format (ODF)

skypatcher · Post by **skypatcher** » Mon Jan 16, 2012 7:01 am

Hi:

I am using LyX 2.0.2 and the latest version of MikTeX 2.9 (ran the updater just now: Jan15) on 64bit Win7 Prof (SP1). When I export my manual.tex to HTML, it prints the following message many times:

Code: Select all

Trying to make PK font ecrm1000 at 8000 DPI...
miktex-makepk: Specified BDPI (8000) doesn't match ljfour resolution (600).
dvips: Font ecbx1000 not found; characters will be left blank.
dvips: Font ecrm1000 not found; characters will be left blank.
dvips: Font ecti1000 not found; characters will be left blank.

But the HTML preview seems OK. It failed to process transparent PNG. But there is a easy work around: supply my own transparent image later.

However, when I tried to export to Open Document TeXt (ODT) many times, it never work! Here are the error message.

Code: Select all

And even it is reported "Successful export to format: odt" actually this is not happening.

I hope some could debug this.

Thanks in advance

One hint:
About the command

Code: Select all

tex4ht AM-v3.tex  -i/tex4ht/ht-fonts/"ooffice/! -cmozhtf" -ewin32/tex4ht.env

I think there is a mess with the inverted commas
Also, if you run the command

Code: Select all

tex4ht AM-v3.tex  -i/tex4ht/ht-fonts/ooffice/! -ewin32/tex4ht.env

no error is given (but I can't by now run it inside lyx)

I'm on Lyx 2.0.5, Windows 7 x67. I noticed the Lyx package with Miktex 2.9 didn't ship with the full tex4ht package so I installed that, but I still can't get OpenOffice export to work at all.

LyxHTML export works, but straight HTML tries to run a Python script and fails, apparently LyX isn't finding any Python install.

I'm not seeing error messages in Document -> Latex log either. All I see is LaTex loading my document and nothing thereafter. I know that " an error occured while running mk4ht oolatex "document.tex" " from the error popup and the progress bar in the bottom right corner but beyond that I'm clueless.

I've already tried the wiki solution of copying the binaries with no luck. (Though the article does say it's for pre-1.6.2) http://wiki.lyx.org/Tools/LyX2OpenOffice

I'm going to fully update all the MikTex packages next to see if that helps.
