Version 2.4.0 of the LyX
document processor has been released. LyX is a “What You See Is What You
Mean” (WYSIWYM) application that offers GUI editing of LaTeX
documents with import and export to PDF, HTML, OpenDocument, Word, and
other formats. LyX 2.4.0 is the first major release in six years, and
brings support for EPUB, DocBook 5, improved
table styles, and now uses Unicode (utf8) as its default encoding. See
the full list of new
features on the LyX wiki, and release
notes for information on known issues and caveats for those
upgrading from earlier versions of LyX.
