Test of spreadsheet external inset in LyX.
|
|
Spreadsheets (created with Gnumeric, LibreOffice, OpenOffice.org, or Excel)
|
|
gets converted to .tex with the
|
|
\family typewriter
|
|
ssconvert
|
|
\family default
|
|
program that is distributed together with Gnumeric.
|
|
They are then imported as longtables.
|
|
As the spreadsheet is
|
|
\begin_inset Quotes eld
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
External material
|
|
\begin_inset Quotes erd
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
, any changes to the spreadsheet will be reflected in LyX's output too.
|
|
Thus, the LyX document is always up to date.

\end_layout

\begin_layout Enumerate

Make a spreadsheet.
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|

\begin_layout Enumerate
|

In LyX use the menu Insert\SpecialChar \menuseparator
|
|
File\SpecialChar \menuseparator

External Material.
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Enumerate
|

In the dialog, set template to
|
|
\family sans
|
|
GnumericSpreadsheet
|
|
\family default
|
|
and select your spreadsheet file.

Simple examples
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
First, the file
|
|
\emph on
|
|
sheet1.gnumeric,
|
|
\emph default
|
|
a spreadsheet created with Gnumeric:
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
\begin_inset External
|
|
template GnumericSpreadsheet
|
|
filename sheet1.gnumeric
|
|
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
Then
|
|
\emph on
|
|
sheet2.ods,
|
|
\emph default
|
|
which was made with LibreOffice:
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
\begin_inset External
|
|
template GnumericSpreadsheet
|
|
filename sheet2.ods
|
|
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
Finally
|
|
\emph on
|
|
sheet3.xls
|
|
\emph default
|
|
which was made for Excel.
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
\begin_inset External
|
|
template GnumericSpreadsheet
|
|
filename sheet3.xls
|
|
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Section
|
|
Long spreadsheets
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
A multi-page spreadsheet called
|
|
\emph on
|
|
longsheet.gnumeric
|
|
\emph default
|
|
.
|
|
Notice that page breaking works fine:
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
\begin_inset External
|
|
template GnumericSpreadsheet
|
|
filename longsheet.gnumeric
|
|
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Section
|
|
Necessary software
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
LyX needs the converter program
|
|
\family typewriter
|
|
ssconvert
|
|
\family default
|
|
that is distributed with Gnumeric.
|
|
It is therefore necessary to install Gnumeric, even if other software is
|
|
used to create and edit the spreadsheets.
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Section
|
|
Limitations
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
Spreadsheet inclusion have some limitations.
|
|
I don't know all of them, but have seen problem with this:
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Labeling
|
|
\labelwidthstring Wide~spreadsheets
|
|
\noindent
|
|
Wide
|
|
\begin_inset space ~
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
spreadsheets Unlike long spreadsheets, a spreadsheet wider than the margins
|
|
doesn't work well.
|
|
There is no attempt at breaking up such spreadsheets.
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Labeling
|
|
\labelwidthstring Wide~spreadsheets
|
|
\noindent
|
|
Some
|
|
\begin_inset space ~
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
formatting Some types of formatting doesn't work.
|
|
The red and green texts in the long spreadsheet are underlined.
|
|
The underlining doesn't show, but the texts is otherwise printed correctly.
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
These limitations come from
|
|
\family typewriter
|
|
ssconvert
|
|
\family default
|
|
.
|
|
Feature requests for better spreadsheet conversions should therefore go
|
|
to the Gnumeric developers.
