Some Important MiKTeX Packages

How to add IET Electronic Letter Layout in Lyx (Windows)?

1. make a subdirectory of el-author under C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\tex\latex\
2. copy el-author.cls into directory of C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\tex\latex\el-author
3. create a file named  el-author.layout and put it in C:\Program Files\LyX20\Resources\layouts
• The contents of the .layout file:

• Now one only need to tell MiKTeX that you have new class in the system. Please start the program “Settings (Admin)” and press the button marked “Refresh FNDB”.
  
• In LyX, do: Tools > Reconfigure
  
• Restart Lyx.
• You should be able to see the class as shown in the following figure.
  

How to add SIGCOMM class into Lyx (Windows)?

1. make a subdirectory of sig-alternate under C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\tex\latex\
2. copy sig-alternate.cls into the directory C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\tex\latex\sig-alternate
3. copy sig-alternate.layout file into C:\Program Files\LyX20\Resources\layouts
• another layout "corp-sig-alternate.layout" that can be used for more space efficiency.
• be sure to make a new directory of "C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\tex\latex\corp-sig-alternate" and put in the file "corp-sig-alternate.cls"
  
4. Now one only need to tell MiKTeX that you have new class in the system. Please start the program “Settings (Admin)” and press the button marked “Refresh FNDB”.
   
5. In LyX, do: Tools > Reconfigure
   
6. Restart Lyx.
7. You should be able to see the class as shown in the following figure.
8. 

Create PDF file

(with all fonts embedded in letter size, resolution of 600, please use dvipdfm --help for more options )

c:\dvipdfm -p letter -r 600 -o my_paper.pdf   my_paper.dvi

Balance Last Page  in two-column Format

Option 1.
\usepackage{flushend}

Option 2.
 include the balance package in the preamble 
\usepackage{balance} 
 insert 
\balance

somewhere in the left (1st) column of your last page. 

Chinese Characters

• Make sure you install the fonts

Document setting fonts--->CJK:bkai language-->other:Unicode (CJK) (utf8) Latex Preamble : \CJKencfamily{UTF8} 預設CJK-Latex的繁體中文字型分別為:[4]     bkai：楷書。 (完整)     bsmi：明體。 (完整)     gbsn：細明體。 (缺字，部份字體無法顯示)     gkai：標楷體。 (缺字，同上) 李果正老師提供的字型字型: ftp://cle.linux.org.tw/pub2/tex/cjk/fonts/ 以前用的舊設定 preamble \usepackage{CJK} \date {} \pagestyle{empty} in the document body \CJKfamily{cwmu}

Code Listings ( C & Matlab )

1. First make sure you have the listings package in your MiKTeX
   
2. Edit an article for a quick test like this. The Matlab source code is in the same directory of your Lyx code.
   
   
3. You have to add the Latex preamble.
   
   
   

    And finally here is the results.

\lstset{
	language=[Visual]C++,
	keywordstyle=\bfseries\ttfamily\color[rgb]{0,0,1},
	identifierstyle=\ttfamily,
	commentstyle=\color[rgb]{0.133,0.545,0.133},
	stringstyle=\ttfamily\color[rgb]{0.627,0.126,0.941},
	showstringspaces=false,
	basicstyle=\small,
	numberstyle=\footnotesize,
	numbers=left,
	stepnumber=1,
	numbersep=10pt,
	tabsize=2,
	breaklines=true,
	prebreak = \raisebox{0ex}[0ex][0ex]{\ensuremath{\hookleftarrow}},
	breakatwhitespace=false,
	aboveskip={1.5\baselineskip},
  columns=fixed,
  upquote=true,
  extendedchars=true,
% frame=single,
% backgroundcolor=\color{lbcolor},
}

            Using the Algorithm Package from Arbitrary LaTeX Classes
            This is easy to fix - simply add the following line to your LyX (Document Setting->Custom Layout/module)         

BibTex Related

Reducing Spacing in the Bibliography

add

    \usepackage{natbib}
    \setlength{\bibsep}{0.0pt}

to the preamble of your document.

Newline in Reference Entry

    Add \def\newblock{} in the preamble to remove the line feed in each cited reference.

Error Messages

This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (MiKTeX 2.9)
The top-level auxiliary file: NSC-yk2012.aux
The style file: plain.bst
bibtex: Windows API error 21: 裝置未就緒。
bibtex: Data: F:/cycu/Papers/ref.bib

         The error message is due to the path provided in the Lyx is hardcoded to hard drive F:. Change the path to ../../ref.bib fix the error.

Misplaced alignment tab character &

This error is due to the character '&' being placed in the .bbl file. The quick fix is to put 'I\' in front of the '&' .

Steps to edit the Tex file exported from Lyx

(1)In Lyx,  export the document in plainTex format.
(2)Edit the name for all the figures in the .tex file.
(3)Edit the \bibliography to use the .bbl file
    for example,
  %%\bibliography{14F__cycu_Papers_MyLibrary,15F__cycu_Papers_ref,16F__cycu_Papers_ref_data_stream,17F__cycu_Papers_main,18F__cycu_Papers_NetFPGA_Korea_erman-yoyo_netfpga_asiaws_paper}
  \bibliography{change_detection_fpga_review0710}
