LyX ⇒ Can't seem to compile chinese

[lyxrocks]

I installed the packages listed here:

cjk and arphi.

as you can see below:

i reconfigured, quit and ran lyx again.

i changed my document setting to GBK, when i compile, this happens:

1.jpg (54.5 KiB) Viewed 8036 times

similarly, Unicode(CJX)(utf8) doesn't work either.

i then changed my document setting to EUC-CN, when i compile, it runs for a bit, then this happens:

actually i solved it.

assuming you have done what i did in the OP, next

download v2.9.2.164 (203M) from here

then install etoolbox under MiKTeX package manager.

then change document class to article(Ctex) under document settings.

the language encoding i used is GBK.

Hi lyxrocks,

Thanks for posting back the solution you found!

Would any of this be useful tod add to the LyX wiki page for Chinese?
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Chinese

I do not use Chinese or Windows, so I don't know how to update it. If there is something to add, and you have the time, you can just go to "Edit" and make the changes.

I face the similar situation, and I fix it by follow.

1. Navigate to your miktex bin directory
2. Execute the below commands:
initexmf --mkmaps
initexmf --update-fndb

Notice that the original post has a typo in the second command...

Besides, I don't know whether my answer should add to Wiki or not, because I don't actually know what I did...
