However, the margins don't change when I produce a pdf preview of the document. The header and
page number will appear at the page top as usual from second page. Let's change the document base
font size from the default 10 pt to 12 pt. Here is another reason why TeX documents have a default
two inch margin for printed pages. If adding this to a LyX document causes problems, however, that
seems like the LyX people need to hear about it: there is absolutely nothing particularly strange about
any of these packages (from a LaTeX point of view) unless you are using a form of TeX (the engine)
which does not have the e-TeX extensions enabled (which e toolbox requires). You can define a title
for the document, one for the running header and one for the toc. The only problem I can imagine
would come from your real margins, which I don't know. Changing the default font family to Roman
(or Default) should fix this. All of my first author papers, as well as my bachelor, master and PhD
thesis are written entirely in LyX. For starters, we need to replace the \maketitle command embedded
here to the actual title of the document. Browse other questions tagged table-of-contents lyx

store LyX documents in a separate (preferable empty) directory to keep your work organized in your
user space on your PCLinuxOS installation. The next button is used to insert an index entry so when
the document is built, there will be a index page typeset within the document. The header and page
number will appear at the page top as usual from second page. Besides it is hardly possible to create
a LyX document that does not compile (without evil red text), so you are less likely to be interrupted
by trivial errors. I would like instead to move the text body towards the outer margin (over the
current margin notes). The page size is A4, and all margins (top, bottom, left, right) should be at least
15 mm (not including any footers or headers). This is normally used for documents that are going to
be published in PDF or HTML format. Ensure that the font chosen is clearly readable (e.g. Arial or
Times New Roman). It is really a good idea to actually read the documentation that comes with LyX,
especially the Introduction, which should already be on screen when you launched LyX for the first
time. The instance of Abstract just below the author's name should be kept as is as this is the header
we use to tell the reader that the following is an abstract of what the document is about. Browse

outline, the math toolbar and the table toolbars, with the latter two appearing at the bottom of the
application window. The Sigma character next to that toggles the Math mode and Math Mode is
needed to typeset mathematical formulas. Existing LaTeX documents can be imported by itself, or
pasted from the clipboard (copied from the source document with another program). If the zoom
level is different, the ruler measurements have to be scaled accordingly. Does it remove the boldness
of description? Thx again. Issue 1: the description label's first letter is not capital; Issue 2: the
distance between letters are wider in the description label. They are not particularly sophisticated but
have served me well for several publications.
From left to right, the first button reverts highlighted text in a list back to plain text (that is no

PhD thesis are written entirely in LyX. TeX does not hyphenate words set with \ttfamily, and
(mentioned by egreg) the inter-word spacing has no flexibility. Or it is something to do with
classicthesis, which is not (I think) the best coded package out there. If something goes wrong, it is
easy to start over without erasing everything. Note that the date is added automatically - you don't
have to do anything. LyX takes a WYSIWYM (that is What You See is What You Mean) approach
to typesetting. The header and page number will appear at the page top as usual from second page.
Remember that TeX treats one whitespace element (such as a blank space or a return carriage
character) the same as a thousand whitespace elements. At least it only requires one declaration in the
preamble, I appreciate you pointing that out. For that reason I use the short title option (in Lyx). I
have never used LyX and I do not have it installed. However, if you want to use one of the
templates included with LyX, then hold down both Control and Shift, and then press N. I have
updated my question which includes screenshots for the outcome by following your suggestion. LyX
is a text editor that generates LaTeX code for you. You edit a visual representation of the semantics
of a LaTeX document (see Figure 1 ). For fonts, you can choose between Roman, Sans Serif, or
Typewriter (for monospace text), or you can reset the font in the text to plain (i.e. default font) text.
The main difference here is that pdflatex optimizes the TeX output for PDF rather than just
translating PostScript to PDF, resulting in a better quality PDF document. To sum it up: We need a
compilable example to play with. But you said multiline; that's entirely different. You can define a
title for the document, one for the running header and one for the toc. I also think the question is
clear, but I had no luck at reopening it by editing. This paragraph is only doublespaced if you use the
etoolbox method to. If you want to write a letter, there are three templates for this purpose. Includes

classicthesis.sty but I don't want to use the margin notes option in it. I already copied all references
from word, and I already made them as a list. The lines around the table are still there, but there is a
LyX notation indicating the amount of whitespace used between the text and the table.

there is another application in the PCLinuxOS repository that takes typesetting to the next level of
simplicity. However, I have very many variables like this, so this one-by-one approach will be far too
time consuming. I am trying to insert logos that need to be closer to the sides of page. Text Style

Mathematical Approach to Photography for a sample document. Slanted simply slants normal text,
whereas Italics provides the truly italicized version of Times New Roman. To allow text justification
the output could have some extra interword spacing, but you are not allowed to do this with Space
