Tufte handout doesn't work with lyx 1.6.7 #54

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I tried to use Tufte handout with Lyx 1.6.7 and MikTex 2.8 and after installing 
all the missing packages, it reported a lot of errors. I updated the files in 
the tex directory of MikTeX but the same errors occur.

Thanks

Can you attach the .log file so I can look at the errors? Thanks!

Sure thing. I attached it. Thank you very much. It's completely beyond me. I'm 
a novice.

Thanks!

This is a known bug in that version of Tufte-LaTeX. I've fixed the bug and you 
can download the latest Tufte-LaTeX files:

  http://tufte-latex.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/tufte-book.cls
  http://tufte-latex.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/tufte-common.def
  http://tufte-latex.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/tufte-handout.cls

You can put those files in the same place as the existing Tufte-LaTeX files 
(i.e., overwriting the existing files with the new ones), or you can put them 
in the same directory as your .tex file (wherever LyX puts this when it's 
building the PDF).

Please let me know if you continue to have problems with these new files.

Hi there,

I overwrote with the flies you sent me. I previously had the files from version 
3.5.0.
I did it in the directory I found them in i.e. C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 
2.8\tex\latex.
I refreshed FNDB and updated the formats in MiKTeX 2.8 settings. After that I 
reconfigured LyX 1.6.7 and restarted it. Unfortunately, I'm still getting 
errors.

Thanks for your time.

Sorry that was rude of me.

No worries.  

It looks like the problem now is that it can't find one of the mathpazo font 
files (specifically, fplmri.tfm).  You might double-check that mathpazo is 
installed and update the font database/index.

It looks like the fplrij8a.pfb file.  This file is provided by the 'fpl' 
package (at least in my TeX Live installation).  (It's a file used for the 
Palladio [Palatino] small-caps fonts.)

You're a superstar. Thanks a lot. It's my favourite layout and I use it a lot 
for work. I can't help but feel that was a dodgy install on my behalf.

Thanks again, much appreciated.

PS Were the files you sent me from 3.5.0?

The files I sent you were from the svn repository -- so they're the absolute 
cutting-edge versions.  If you'd like to stay current with the svn version of 
the files, you can follow the instructions on this page to download them: 

  http://code.google.com/p/tufte-latex/source/checkout

Once you've downloaded them following those instructions, you can just run 'svn 
up' to grab the latest versions from time to time.

If you'd like to receive email updates when new code is uploaded, you can

Actually I've spoken too soon. Could you have a look at this log file. It 
worked on an older version of LyX and MiKTeX 2.7. I managed to generate a very 
simple pdf so I assume that there are more packages missing.

Sorry about this.

Thanks in advance
