Class LNCS in LyX doesn't work
I found the problem,
A little clarification for those who want to install a class in LyX. Please follow these steps that are mentioned in the previous link:
Step 0:
Quit LyX
Step 1:
Download llncs2e.zip
, which contains llncs.cls
and llncsdoc.sty
. I just googled for a download link and got mine from here.
Step 2:
Copy those files to the folder ...\MiKTeX 2.7\tex\latex\lncs
, where ...\MiKTeX 2.7
is the folder in which MiKTeX is installed. On some systems, copy to ... \MiKTeX 2.7\texmf\latex\lncs
. The lncs
folder will probably need to be created.
Mine was in C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\tex\latex
, where I had to create the lncs
folder (which requires admin privilege escalation). I extracted llncs.cls
and llncsdoc.sty
to this folder.
Step 3:
Run
texhash
from the command line.
Step 4:
Run MiKTeX Settings. Press "Refresh FNDB" under General. Then, possibly, "Update Formats".
Step 5:
Open LyX and select Tools -> Reconfigure
Very straightforward
But be sure to put the llncs.cls
and llncsdoc.style
files in:
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\MiKTeX\2.9\tex\latex\lncs
PS. Create the folder lncs
if it doesn't exist.
