If you set only the width or only the height, the other size will be determined automatically. If you set both, then the image will be transformed to the given size, possibly distorting it. To prevent the image from distortion, use the option \family sans Maintain aspect ratio \family default . The image will then be scaled so that its width and height don't exceed the specified dimensions. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Images can be opened in a program of your choice by right-clicking on it and choosing the entry \family sans Edit \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset externally \family default in the context menu. The program can be set for every image format in the file format settings in LyX's preferences. \end_layout \begin_layout Description \family sans Clipping \family default Alternatively to the usage of scaling units it is possible to set image coordinates to adjust the height and width of the image in the output. The coordinates can also be calculated automatically by pressing the button \family sans Get \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset from \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset File \family default . The option \family sans Clip \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset to \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset bounding \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset box \family default will only print the image region within the given coordinates.

Settings grouping \end_layout \end_inset Images within such a group share their settings, so adjusting one image of the group automatically also adjusts all other images of the group in the same way. So you can for example change the size for a bunch of images without the need to manually change each of them. Joining an existing group can also be done using the context menu of the image by checking the name of the desired group. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace bigskip \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This is an example image in EPS format \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Image formats are explained in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Image-Formats" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset within a separate, horizontally centered paragraph: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Graphics filename clipart/mobius.eps scale 70 scaleBeforeRotation rotateOrigin center \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This is the same image like the one above but in draft mode: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Graphics filename clipart/mobius.eps scale 70 draft scaleBeforeRotation rotateOrigin center \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Newpage newpage \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Section Figure Floats \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:Figure-Floats" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Floats !

It is important to use references to floats, rather than using vague references like \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset the figure above \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , because LaTeX will reposition the floats in the final document and it might not be \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset above \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset at all. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Referencing is explained in detail in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Referencing-Floats" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Normally only one image is inserted to a figure float, but sometimes you might want to use two images with separate subcaptions. This can be done by inserting image floats into existing image floats. Note that only the main caption of the float is added to the List of Figures. Figure \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "fig:Two-distorted-images" \end_inset is an example of a figure float with two images set side by side.

But as explained in appendix \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "cha:Output-File-Formats" \end_inset , each output document format allows only a few image formats. LyX uses therefore the program \family typewriter ImageMagick \family default in the background to convert the images to the right format. To increase your work flow by avoiding these conversions in the background, you could choose to use only the image formats that can directly be embedded in the output file format. The output file formats are explained in appendix \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "cha:Output-File-Formats" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Similar to fonts there are two types of image formats: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Bitmap \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset images consist of pixel values, often in a compressed form.

The toolbar button offers you a graphical selection: move the mouse to set the column/row number of the table that should be created and then press a mouse button. When you use the menu to create a table, a dialog will appear, asking you for the number of rows and columns. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset The default table has lines around any cell and the first row appears separated from the rest of the table. This separation occurs due to a double line: The cells of the first row have a line below them and the cells of the second row have a line above them.

Calculation \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard LaTeX calculates the height of table pages and their page breaks using so called chunks. Chunks are parts of tables that held at the same time in LaTeX's memory. The default value was historically set to only 20 table rows. If you are using longtables with many pages this may slow down the creation of your document. You can safely increase the chunk size to values of 100-1000 by adding this command line to your document preamble: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash setcounter{LTchunksize}{100} \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Floats and Longtables \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Longtables ! Floats \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard There might be problems when a float appears on the same page where a longtable starts. To avoid such a situation, insert a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset clear page \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar \menuseparator Formatting\SpecialChar \menuseparator Clear \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Page \family default ) before your longtable. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Forced Page Breaks \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Longtables ! Forced Page Breaks \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard By default tables are only broken between rows. If you have a cell with multiples lines and want to have a page break within the cell, insert the new line command \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \series bold \backslash \backslash \series default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset as TeX-Code at the point of the cell where it can be broken. Before the \series bold \backslash \backslash \series default command you have to insert in TeX-Code as many \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \series bold & \series default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset characters as the number of the following table columns. The \series bold & \series default is the character to separate table cells. Write in TeX-Code after each \series bold & \series default the content of the corresponding following cell and delete the content of these cells. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset After the \series bold \backslash \backslash \series default command, insert as many \series bold & \series default characters as the number of table columns before the current column. In Table \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "tab:ForcedPagebreak" \end_inset the cell that should be broken is in the second column followed by another column. Therefore the following command was inserted in the cell as TeX-Code after \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \emph on Castelchiodato, \emph default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset : \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold & 111 \backslash \backslash \backslash newpage \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset & \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset 111 \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset in the third column of the row was deleted. \series bold \backslash newpage \series default is only needed when a page break should definitely occur at this position, otherwise it would be a conditional break. If your footer row of the longtable has for a certain reason no upper line but you would have a horizontal line where the cell is broken, use this command instead: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold & 111 \backslash \backslash \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset \backslash hline & \end_layout \begin_layout Standard When the cell to be broken is in the last column, the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash setlength{ \backslash parfillskip}{0pt} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard must be inserted as TeX-Code at the beginning of the cell. This ensures that the part of the cell that will be displayed on the new page appears with the full width. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text

In the appearing table dialog we set a cell width of 2.5 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm and choose centered for the vertical and horizontal alignment. The vertical alignment is used for all cells of the row. As our text is smaller than 2.5 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm, only one line will appear. To get two lines, a justified line break (shortcut \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert linebreak" \end_inset ) was added. If the text is wider than the set cell width, it will automatically be broken to several lines. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you have a long word in a cell with a fixed width, it cannot be hyphenated by LaTeX if it is the first entry. Therefore you need to insert something to prevent the word not being the first entry. So add a horizontal space of 0 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset pt before the word. As the space is zero, it doesn't change the output. Table \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "tab:Table-with-and" \end_inset shows the effect. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Float table placement h wide false sideways false status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Caption Standard \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "tab:Table-with-and" \end_inset Table with and without hyphenation \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout verylongtablecellword \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout b \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout c \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout d \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout e \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout f \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout g \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout h \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout i \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset space \hspace{} \length 0pt \end_inset verylongtablecellword \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout b \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout c \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout d \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout e \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout f \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout g \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout h \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout i \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \begin_inset space \hfill{} \end_inset \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Multicolumns \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sub:Multicolumns" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Multicolumns \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Table !

Now choose for this cell \emph on multicolumn \emph default , \emph on centered alignment \emph default and a width of 2.5 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm in the table dialog. The merged columns should have exactly half the width of the multicolumn cell, so that you would set a width of 1.25 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm for the first column. The second column has then automatically a width of 1.25 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm (multicolumn width - width of first column).

The reason is that the specified width of a cell \begin_inset Formula $W_{g}$ \end_inset is not its total width \begin_inset Formula $W_{\mathrm{tot}}$ \end_inset because a cell is always a bit larger than specified. Appendix \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "cha:Explanation-of-Equation" \end_inset explains this in detail. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The width \begin_inset Formula $W_{g\, n}$ \end_inset which the user needs to set when \emph on n \emph default columns are spanned can be calculated, so that each column has a total width of \begin_inset Formula $W_{\mathrm{tot\, multicolumn}}/n$ \end_inset : \begin_inset Formula \begin{equation} W_{g\, n}=(W_{g\,\mathrm{multicolumn}}+(1-n)\cdot(12.4\,\mathrm{pt}))/n\label{eq:Wgn} \end{equation} \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard In our case we have \begin_inset Formula $n=2$ \end_inset , \begin_inset Formula $W_{g\,\mathrm{multicolumn}}=2.5\,$ \end_inset cm and the default values for the lengths, so that equation \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "eq:Wgn" \end_inset becomes \begin_inset Formula \begin{equation} W_{g\,2}=1.25\,\mathrm{cm}-6.2\,\mathrm{pt} \end{equation} \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To enable calculations in LaTeX, the LaTeX-package \series bold calc \series default must be loaded with the document preamble line \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout LaTeX-packages ! calc \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash usepackage{calc} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard LyX does not allow you to calculate lengths in the \family sans Width \family default field of the table dialog. Therefore you have to format the column by inserting a LaTeX-argument in the dialog. Here is an overview about the arguments: \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \series bold p{width} \series default creates cell with a fixed width, its text is vertically top-aligned \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \series bold m{width} \series default creates cell with a fixed width, its text is vertically centered \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize \series bold b{width} \series default creates cell with a fixed width, its text is vertically bottom-aligned \end_layout \begin_layout Standard By entering a LaTeX-argument, all cell settings set in the table dialog are overwritten. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Due to a bug, LyX shows the overwritten settings anyway. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard As the text should be horizontally centered, the command \series bold \backslash centering \series default is added. You can now enter the following LaTeX-argument for the first spanned column: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold >{ \backslash centering}m{1.25cm-6.2pt} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The command \series bold >{ } \series default means, that the commands inside the braces are applied before the cell is created. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Although we have chosen centered alignment for the text of the multicolumn cell, it is still left aligned. This is because LyX only applies the alignment to single columns. So for the multicolumn cell we have to use the LaTeX-argument \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold >{ \backslash centering}m{2.5cm} \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Multirows \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sub:Multirows" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Multirows \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Table !

The \family sans Vertical Offset \family default shifts the content of the multirow up/down if the offset is positive/negative. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If the column of a multirow cell has no explicit width, the multirow cell inherits the alignment of the column. Otherwise it is by default left-aligned. To override the default, renew the command \series bold \backslash multirowsetup \series default with the command \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \series bold \backslash renewcommand{ \backslash multirowsetup}{ \backslash centering} \end_layout \begin_layout Standard in the document preamble. Then all entries of multirow cells in the document are centered. If centering is only needed for several tables, you can renew the command in a TeX-Code box just before the table instead of the preamble. If the text should be right-aligned, replace \series bold \backslash centering \series default by \series bold \backslash raggedleft \series default . To return to left-alignment \series bold \backslash raggedright \series default is used. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard This is an example table with a right-aligned multirow cell that has a vertical offset of -4 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset mm and is in a 3 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm wide column: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \noindent \align center \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash renewcommand{ \backslash multirowsetup}{ \backslash raggedleft} \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout a long cell entry \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout b \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout c \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout t \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout n \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout m \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout multirow \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout e \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout f \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout h \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout i \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash renewcommand{ \backslash multirowsetup}{ \backslash raggedright} \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To start a new line in a multirow you can use a forced line break (shortcut \begin_inset Info type "shortcut" arg "newline-insert newline" \end_inset ) but this will not respect the cell lines as demonstrated in this table: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \noindent \align center \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout aaa \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset aaa \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset wrong cell \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout ccc \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout ddd \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout bbb \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout eee \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Therefore be careful with forced line breaks. \end_layout \begin_layout Subsection Cells with diagonal line(s) \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To tell the reader what is meant by column and row headings in a table, it is helpful to split the first cell of the table by one or two diagonal lines.

For \series bold \backslash diagbox \series default a width of 4 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm + 2 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset \backslash tabcolsep is necessary because the overall width is the width for the text (in this case the 4 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset cm) plus two times the separation of the text and the cell border.

Startcol is the number of the column where the line starts and endcol the column number where the line ends. The endcol always needs to be specified, also when the line should span only one column. The optional parameter trim could be either \emph on l{trimwidth} \emph default , or \emph on r{trimwidth} \emph default where the trimwidth is also optional. Using for example the parameter \emph on l{2pt} \emph default means that the line is trimmed from its left end by 2 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset pt.

Introduction \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard A float is a block of text associated with some sort of label, which doesn't have a fixed location. It can \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset float \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset forward or backward a page or two, to wherever it fits best. \family sans Footnotes \family default and \family sans Margin \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Notes \family default are also floats because they can float to the next page when there are too many notes on the page. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Floats allow a high quality layout. Images and tables can be spread evenly among the pages to avoid white space and pages without text. As the floating often destroys the context between the text and the image/table , every float can be referenced in the text. Floats are therefore numbered. Referencing is described in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Referencing-Floats" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To insert a float, use the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar \menuseparator Float \family default (toolbar button \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "float-insert figure" \end_inset or \begin_inset Info type "icon" arg "float-insert table" \end_inset ). This inserts the \family sans Caption \family default inset, a box with a label. The label will automatically be translated to the document language in the output. After the label you can insert the caption text. The image or table is inserted above or below the caption in a separate paragraph within the float. More about the caption placement is contained in section \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Caption-Placement" \end_inset . To keep your LyX-document readable, you can open and close the float box by left-clicking on the box label. A closed float box looks like this: \begin_inset Graphics filename clipart/floatQt4.png scale 70 scaleBeforeRotation \end_inset – a gray button with a red label. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard It is recommended that you insert floats as separate standard paragraphs to avoid possible LaTeX-errors that can occur when the surrounding text is specially formatted. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Existing figures or tables can be put into a float by highlighting them and then pressing the corresponding toolbar button for a new float. \end_layout \begin_layout Section Float Types \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Besides figure and table floats that are described in sections \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Figure-Floats" \end_inset and \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sec:Table-Floats" \end_inset respectively, LyX offers the float types \family sans Algorithm \family default and \family sans Wrap \family default .

To avoid this the LaTeX-command \series bold \backslash suppressfloats \series default can be used. It suppresses a given float placement for the page where it is inserted and can therefore be used to avoid floats being set before a section starts.

To specify the range of pages that should be included, use the option \series bold pages \series default in the \family sans Option \family default field in the \family sans LaTeX and LyX options \family default tab. The argument of this option is a comma separated list, containing page numbers (insert as option \series bold pages={3,5,6,8} \series default ), ranges of page numbers ( \series bold pages={4-9} \series default ) or any combination. To insert empty pages use {}. E. \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset g. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \series bold pages={3,{},8-11,15} \series default will insert page 3, an empty page, and pages 8, 9, 10, 11 and 15. Page ranges are specified in the syntax \emph on start \emph default - \emph on stop \emph default . This selects all pages from \emph on start \emph default to \emph on stop \emph default . Omitting \emph on start \emph default defaults to the first page; omitting \emph on stop \emph default defaults to the last page of the document. The last page can also be selected with the keyword \series bold last \series default . (This is only permitted in a page range.) So \series bold pages=- \series default will insert all pages of the document and \series bold pages=last-1 \series default will insert all pages in reverse order. If the pages option is not specified, only the first page of the PDF is inserted. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset The option \series bold noautoscale \series default inserts the pages with their original size, if this option is not given, the pages will be resized to fith the width of the page of your document. In the tab \family sans Size and Rotation \family default you can specify the width and height of the input pages and their rotation. If another width than 100 \begin_inset space \thinspace{} \end_inset Scale% is used, the option \series bold noautoscale \series default will be overwritten.

Then you can insert as many paragraphs containing the PDFPages template as you wish. Behind the included PDF pages you can resume the Beamer presentation by beginning a new frame or by starting a new section. To avoid stray blank pages prior to the PDF pages, make sure to use the \family sans Default \family default alignment for the paragraph containing the template. \begin_inset Newline newline \end_inset Here is an included PDF which is rotated by -5°: \begin_inset External template PDFPages filename clipart/Abstract.pdf extra LaTeX "noautoscale, pages=-" rotateAngle -5 rotateOrigin bottomleft \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Description RasterImage This can be used for bitmap images.

Include \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Child documents are used if you have a long document consisting of several larger parts or sections. For maintenance it is often useful and sometimes even required to split the document into several files that can be revised separately. The different documents are then the so called \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset child documents \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , and a master document connects them to print the full document or parts of it. A child document inherits elements from its master, for example the LaTeX preamble, the bibliography, and labels for cross-references. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard To be able to work on child documents without the need to open their master, specify in the child document the master in the menu \family sans Document\SpecialChar \menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar \menuseparator Document \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Class \family default .

A dialog pops up where you can choose between four include methods: \end_layout \begin_layout Description Include You can include LyX- and LaTeX-documents.

Labels of included documents can be referenced: Subsection \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "sub:External-Subsection-1" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard The preamble of the child document is ignored; only the preamble of the master document is used.

The file is shown in the output with its source code; no command used in the text is invoked. You can use the option \family sans Mark spaces in output \family default that displays the character \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \begin_inset ERT status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout \backslash textvisiblespace \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset for every space character in the source code. The difference from the method via the menu \family sans Insert\SpecialChar \menuseparator File\SpecialChar \menuseparator Plain \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset Text \family default is that the document content is not shown in LyX. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Here is a child document inserted as Verbatim: \begin_inset CommandInset include LatexCommand verbatiminput filename "DummyTextDocument.txt" \end_inset \begin_inset VSpace bigskip \end_inset Here is a child document inserted as Verbatim using the \family sans Mark spaces in output \family default option: \begin_inset CommandInset include LatexCommand verbatiminput* filename "DummyTextDocument.txt" \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset VSpace bigskip \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default As you can see in the examples above, the text of the documents included as \family sans verbatim \family default is not broken at the end of the document lines. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Description Listings This type is described in chapter \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset \begin_inset CommandInset ref LatexCommand ref reference "cha:Program-Code-Listings" \end_inset . \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default Including the same document twice in a document using different methods could cause LaTeX-problems. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard If you want to view/export only selected children of your master document, either because you want to save compiling time or because you want to distribut e single chapters of the book you are just writing, you can exclude children from the output. This is done via the menu \family sans Document\SpecialChar \menuseparator Settings\SpecialChar \menuseparator Child Documents \family default . You can exclude\SpecialChar \slash{} include children by double-clicking on the \family sans include to output \family default column of the respective child document in the list (note that this only works for documents embedded via \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Include \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset , not with \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Input \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ). If the option \family sans Maintain counters and references \family default is enabled, LyX will assure that all page numbers, references etc. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset are correct as if the whole document was processed. This is useful if you want the selected sub-documents to look exactly as in the context of the whole document. However, LyX needs to process the whole document in the background for this feature. So if you want to save compile time and if counters and references do not need to be correct, disable this checkbox. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Alternatively, you can put each included file into a branch. \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout Branches are described in section \emph on Branches \emph default of the LyX \emph on Userguide \emph default . \end_layout \end_inset By enabling\SpecialChar \slash{} disabling branches you can decide which included files will appear in the output.

It is called \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset device-independent \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (DVI), because it is completely portable; you can move them from one machine to another without needing to do any sort of conversion. At the time when this file-format was developed, this was no matter of course. DVIs are used for quick previews and as pre-stage for other output formats, like PostScript. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Note Greyedout status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \series bold Note: \series default DVI-files do not contain images; they will only be a linked. \end_layout \end_inset So don't forget this, if you move your \family typewriter .dvi \family default file to another computer. This property can also slow down your computer when you view the DVI, because the DVI-viewer has to convert the image in the background to make it visible when you scroll in the DVI. So it is recommended that you use PDF for files with many images. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can export your document to DVI by using the menu \family sans File\SpecialChar \menuseparator Export\SpecialChar \menuseparator DVI \family default . You can view your document as DVI via the \family sans View \family default menu. \end_layout \begin_layout Section PostScript \begin_inset CommandInset label LatexCommand label name "sec:PostScript" \end_inset \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout File Formats !

PostScript was developed by the company \family typewriter Adobe \family default as a printer language. The file therefore contains commands that the printer uses to print the file. PostScript can be seen as a \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset programming language \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ; you can calculate with it and draw diagrams and images \begin_inset Foot status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout If you are interested to learn more about this, have a look at the LaTeX-package \series bold PSTricks \series default \begin_inset CommandInset citation LatexCommand cite key "pstricks" \end_inset . \end_layout \end_inset . Due to this ability, the files are often bigger than PDFs. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard PostScript can only contain images in the format \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Encapsulated PostScript \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (EPS, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .eps \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ). As LyX allows you to use any known image format in your document, it has to convert images in the background to EPS. If you have e.g. \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset 50 \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset images in your document, LyX has to do 50 \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset conversions whenever you view or export your document. This will slow down your work flow with LyX drastically. So if you plan to use PostScript, you can insert your images directly as EPS to avoid this problem. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can export your document to PostScript using the menu \family sans File\SpecialChar \menuseparator Export\SpecialChar \menuseparator Postscript \family default . You can view your document as PostScript via the \family sans View \family default menu. \end_layout \begin_layout Section PDF \begin_inset Index idx status collapsed \begin_layout Plain Layout File Formats !

The \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Portable Document Format \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (PDF) was developed by \family typewriter Adobe \family default as a derivative of PostScript. It is more compressed and it uses fewer commands than PostScript. As the name \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset portable \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset implies, it can be processed at any computer system and the printed output looks exactly the same. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard PDF can contain images in its own PDF format, in the format \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Joint Photographic Experts Group \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (JPG, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .jpg \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset or \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .jpeg \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ), and in the format \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset Portable Network Graphics \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset (PNG, file extension \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset \family typewriter .png \family default \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset ). Nevertheless you can use any other image format, because LyX converts them in the background to one of these formats. But as described in the section about PostScript, the image conversion will slow down your work flow. So it is recommended that you use images in one of the three mentioned formats. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can export your document to PDF via the menu \family sans File\SpecialChar \menuseparator Export \family default in three different ways: \end_layout \begin_layout Description PDF \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (ps2pdf) This uses the program \family typewriter ps2pdf \family default that creates a PDF from a PostScript-version of your file. The PostScript-version is produced by the program \family typewriter dvips \family default which uses a DVI-version as intermediate step. So this export variant consists of three conversions. \end_layout \begin_layout Description PDF \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (dvipdfm) This uses the program \family typewriter dvipdfm \family default that converts your file in the background to DVI and in a second step to PDF. \end_layout \begin_layout Description PDF \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (pdflatex) This uses the program \family typewriter pdftex \family default that converts your file directly to PDF. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard It is recommended that you use \family sans PDF \begin_inset space ~ \end_inset (pdflatex) \family default because \family typewriter pdftex \family default supports all features of actual PDF-versions, is quick and works stable. The program \family typewriter dvipdfm \family default is not under development and therefore a bit outdated. \end_layout \begin_layout Standard You can view your document as PDF via the \family sans
