Error with child documents

Post by judas67 »

Hi all

I have a document composed of 3 child inserted documents. Each four document is "book (Tufte)" class and has the same preamble.
Pdf of each separate document are showed without problem, but when I try to show the whole it throws me an error:
Package textcomp Error: Symbol \textrightarrow not provided by

I don't use this package in my documents so I guess its Lyx when compiling. Could someone help me?

thanks

Error with child documents

Hi,

welcome to the board!

I guess, the complete error message is:

Code: Select all

! Package textcomp Error: Symbol \textrightarrow not provided by
(textcomp)                font family put in TS1 encoding.
(textcomp)                Default family used instead.
Obviously the font you used just doesn't contain this symbol. And textcomp would use just the default font family, if this symbol is needed.

You could pass the warn option to change this error into a warning, so it doesn't prevent compilation. For this, add to your document preamble:

Code: Select all

\PassOptionsToPackage{warn}{textcomp}

Hi Stefan

Thank you vey much for your welcome...and for the solution. It was exactly the problem. Once identified it was easier for me to delete the character, but I keep the tweak for next time.

Anyway it's amazing because I was using Lyx' default font...it let you write some characters that it can't compile...

Thanks again
