Lyx:Cross Platform Free Document Processor

Jul 23, 2010 by Shivendu Madhava

Lyx is an interesting concept that distances itself from the more generic ‘word processors’ by calling itself a ‘document processor’. The subtle difference of course is because Lyx is a WYSIWYM word processor—What You See Is What You Mean. While the standard set of word processor features already exist it’s the extended set that is really interesting. It features various text classes for articles, slides, books, etc., and also for different scientific societies like IEEE.

Multilingual support and a large number of templates which can also be added as plug-ins also exist. Lyx also features an inbuilt formula editor for all those scientific equations. Automatic formatting and a large number of other automated tasks complete the
already impressive package.
