I'm pretty new to using LyX, but have looked around this forum, as well as others and haven't found anyone else who has encountered this problem.
The issue is that, when I click on the 'eyes' to preview my document in .pdf form, there are the two numbered sections with the corresponding body text, but my title, abstract, and keywords, as well as the 'new page' formatting, are all missing; the two sections are at the top of the page as though they had never been included.
Some pertinent information:
LyX has recently been installed (last couple of weeks)
I'm running OSX 10.9.5
My version of LyX is 2.1.3
I'm using the Elsevier document class
The following is the TeX source:

Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this and help out!

Edit1: After adding \begin{frontmatter}{} and \end{frontmatter}{} before the title and after the keywords, things seem to be working (ie. the title, keywords, abstract and authors are all working) -- does the Elsevier document class force this to be used when denoting these items?
as suggested in the link below:
In the pulldown menu where you set your title text to be the Title, there's entries for BeginFrontmatter and EndFrontmatter. You need to put the first before your title and the second after your keywords.

I have some cell texts in a BIRT report which do not flow as nicely as I hoped.
For example,
The text is Long value resultwithaverylongname whichcannotbreak and I had hoped that it would be displayed like this:
Long value
resultwithaverylongname
whichcannotbreak
The render options are as follows:
renderOptions.setOutputFormat(IPDFRenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_PDF);
renderOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PAGE_OVERFLOW, IPDFRenderOption.OUTPUT_TO_MULTIPLE_PAGES);
renderOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PDF_TEXT_WRAPPING, true);
renderOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PDF_WORDBREAK, true);
It seems to me that my desired output is physically possible but I don't know why BIRT does not break on a whitespace and breaks in the middle of the word.
I am using BIRT 4.16 (from Sourceforge). The texts contain normal whitespace (no non-breakable spaces) and are displayed via a data object.
3.Sep.21
I now have an example project which I am trying to commit to Github. In the meantime here is a screenshot showing breaks which look good and others which are not...
The git repo is here: https://github.com/pramsden/test.wordbreak
If the text "resultwithaverylongname" physically fits, then you are right:
BIRT should not break it in the middle of the word.
Your renderOptions seem right (depending of what BIRT version you are using).
At first glance this looks like a bug.
But: In German language, we often have quite long words, and I've created a lot of (complex) PDF reports with BIRT, but I never saw this issue.
So I guess it is a tiny silly detail which causes this.
Just to double-check:
Are the spaces between "Long", "value", "result..." normal spaces (0x20)? or non-breaking spaces?
Which BIRT release are you using?
Are you using a data item or a dynamic text item and if so, is it HTML or plain text?
Can you create a reproducible simple test case and post the rptdesign file somewhere?
well i don use BIRT , but try to use (\n),
in my case I use PDFFlow library to generate pdf docs, and to make a line-break i just use \n
this is a simple example code to create a pdf file and use line break
var DocumentBuilder.New()
.AddSection()
.AddParagraphToSection("Hello world! \n go to the next line")
.ToDocument()
.Build("Result.PDF");
try it and tell me if it works
Is there any way of formatting a list of links in a text file, so JDownloader's Linkgrabber knows the package name I want?
For example:
{{packagename1}}http://link-a
{{packagename1}}http://link-b
{{packagename2}}http://link-c
{{packagename3}}http://link-d
{{packagename4}}http://link-e
{{packagename4}}http://link-f
Will put link-a and link-b in "packagename1", link-c in "packagename2", link-d in "packagename3", and link-e and link-f in "packagename4".
Someone in Reddit pointed me to the solution.
If we look in Settings / Packagizer, there's a rule editor.
A custom rule can be made that takes links in the format:
http://link-a#packagename=packagename1
Which puts the downloads found in the link in a package named "packagename1".

I only want to keep the page number at the bottom and nothing header.But using the following commands I am still getting chapter name and section in the header
\pagestyle{fancy}
\renewcommand\headrulewidth{0pt}
\lhead{}\chead{}\rhead{}
\cfoot{\vspace*{1.5\baselineskip}\thepage}
Thanks in advance
\pagestyle{plain} should take care of that. For single pages \thispagestyle{plain}
http://www.ctex.org/documents/packages/layout/fancyhdr.pdf
The fancyhdr doc explains the problem.
Some LATEX commands, like \chapter, use the \thispagestyle command to automatically switch
to the plain page style, thus ignoring the page style currently in effect. To customize even such
pages you must redefine the plain pagestyle.
And it suggests
\fancypagestyle{plain}{%
\fancyhf{} % clear all header and footer fields
\fancyfoot[C]{\bfseries \thepage} % except the center
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}}
I am writing a handbook for hotplate. It's going to be a lot bigger than I expected. So, I wanted to "break up" the document into several sub-documents.
I am thinking about slicing the documents according to its #titles. So:
# Main title
Under main title
## Installation
Under installation
## Initial use
Under initial use
Would generate three files:
maintitle.html -- with a point list pointing to installation.html and initialuse.html ("next")
installation.html -- with a link to maintitle.html ("prev") and one to initialuse.html ("next)
initialuse.html -- with links to installation.html ("prev")
It basically breaks up a Markdown file into sections.
Does something like this already exist?
"no" (3 years later) I guess this will help people in the future with the same question!
When doing research I find myself usually annotating a pdf document (highlighting, adding notes), then I will create a note in Evernote and index all my annotations.
For example,
p 3 - "is it possible for schools to change their practices and thereby have a strongly positive effect on student achievement?"
p 10 - "the district boldly moved forward with several new reforms"
My hope is to work with a pdf document, annotate it, then run the applet which would copy all my annotations (highlights and notes) to clipboard, where then I could paste them in a note, thereby having an index of all the points I found useful.
I am using a mac, and am open to using which ever language would be simple to creating this. My thoughts are that an applescript would be best.
Skim can export notes as text, and it also has an AppleScript dictionary.
tell application "Skim" to tell document 1 to save as "notes as text" in "/Users/username/Desktop/notes.txt"
The output looks like this:
* Highlight, page 1
ocument (highlighting
* Text Note, page 1
aa
* Highlight, page 1
ent, annotate it,
