I'm studying Information Technology Engineering at the Politecnico di Milano, after enjoying an Erasmus period by the Vrije Universiteit. I moderate Gaming, whine on Twitter and lurk on Youtube.

Can LyX automatically save the PDF output in the same folder? I've talked with LyX developers about this and this is the approach they recommend. |

How productive are you with TikZ? For diagrams that are a little simpler than this, you can easily get away with using the simpler GraphViz. In the simplest cases its syntax is dead simple: digraph G { "a" -> "c" -> "d"; "b" -> "c" }. Save in test.dot and then run dot test.dot -Tsvg -o test.svg. |

How can I introduce a non-technical person to LaTeX? Probably, your secretary was starting from relatively blank or didn't use many of the Word features, whereas your IT guy had a lot of Word knowledge and habits he needed to transition from. Just because Windows power users find Linux (or Mac) hard to use at first, it doesn't mean a brand new user would. |

How can I introduce a non-technical person to LaTeX? @LianTzeLim Just be careful with not stepping over the newbie's toes. Unlike all versioning systems, Dropbox doesn't handle conflicts at all and either (not both!) of you might end up with "(conflicted copy)" versions of the same file. |

How can I introduce a non-technical person to LaTeX? +1,000. Most of the power of TeX with none of the syntax, plus the aggressive take on changing your mindset away from "I want this to be Arial 15pt bold italic centered" and back to "I want this to be a title" makes LyX awesome for this. |

How to write raw text verbatim in LyX? That's what I see, and that's bad, because I don't want to export to Latex to update the images :) |
