LyX

What is LyX

LyX is a document processor and not like MS Word or OpenOffice Writer which are word processors
LyX is free and open source software (FOSS)
LyX uses TeX which the best typesetting engine since the mid 1980s
LyX leaves you free to concentrate on writing content and do all professional format for you
LyX is particularly suited for editing many scientific publications e.g. articles, reports, books and even presentations
LyX is platform independent, works on MS Windows, Linux and Mac
LyX is a structural document processor, which means that every document should have a definite structure
The structure of each document should be: title, author, part, section, subsection, subsubsection, paragraph, subparagraph and standard

How to Install LyX

I have made an abstracted article on how to install and configure LyX in Windows. You can find this article in the following link.

Portable LyX

Portable LyX needs no installation. You can run it directly from your hard disk, flash drive, SD card or external USB hard disk. This portable software is very useful and avoid all the hassles of conventional LyX install.

This software was originally developed by Stéphane Mourey. The original software is found here

I have made some modifications by addition of many packages which are necessary for most of the Scientific Writing and to cope with the thesis template I have made for Ain-Shams University.

Instructions for usage of this portable software are found in the file “Lyx-Install-portable-1.pdf” in this link.

You can found the modified zipped file of this software as a torrent file in the following link

Thesis Template

A template using LyX made specifically for Master and PhD theses for the Faculty of Dentistry, Ain-Shams University, Cairo, Egypt. However, it can be easily adapted to suit other schools and collages.
