Text Formatting ⇒ Letter Spacing in Document Language other than English

[bistro]

Hi,

I have a problem with using the soul package in document which has another document language than English. This may be a know problem, but the solutions I found on the Internet do not work for me (see here).

I want to use increased letter spacing in order to cite certain texts correctly. I write in LyX, use the document class book and chose naustrian as the standard language.

In my document preamble I have this.

Code: Select all

\usepackage{soul}
\usepackage[naustrian]{babel}

When I write \so{letterspacing} this is inserted in this way

Code: Select all

\so{\foreignlanguage{naustrian}{verantwortliche}}

I then try to render the document and receive the following message:

Code: Select all

Package babel Error: You haven't defined the language {naustrian} yet.

Does anyone have an idea how to handle this issue?
Thank you!

Hi

I [...] chose naustrian as the standard language.

In this case using \foreignlanguage{naustrian}{<text>} doesn't seem to make much sense...

Anyways:

When I write [...]

Code: Select all

\so{\foreignlanguage{naustrian}{verantwortliche}}

and try to render the document I receive the following message:

Package babel Error: You haven't defined the language {naustrian} yet.

change the order of the commands: \foreignlanguage{naustrian}{\so{verantwortliche}}
