Lyx: "LaTex for physists" package problem. Help!!

Post by emoschan »

Hello!
I have found this very useful package for physists:
http://www.dfcd.net/articles/latex/latex.html . I try to use it with Lyx, following the instructions. I save the header.tex file in the same folder as my lyx document, and then in the Document -> Settings -> LatexPreamble window I write \input{header.tex}. But when I compile my document the following error message appears:

! LaTeX Error: File `header.tex' not found.
\input{header.tex}

*** (cannot \read from terminal in nonstop modes)

A friend of mine followed exactly the same procedure and had no problems.
I use MikTex 2.9 , the latest Lyx version and windows 7 , Greek edition.
Any ideas?

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p
