Hallo Günter and Riki,
thank you for your helpful explanations.
I summarize the different solutions:
Problem:
Some time ago I've uploaded a 800 p. LyX-generated PDF-file as an
OpenAccess document to our uni-server. And now I'm writing
an new separate appendix to this document and in this appendix I want
references to many formula of my published 800 p. PDF-document.
So I tried the Master-Child feature but in the separate compiled child
the references are not available.
Solutions:
1. writing the new appendix in the original LyX-file with all the
correct references, compiling with pdflatex and copying the appendix in
a new PDF by the 'print on file feature' (means cropping the PDF) - on
Linux with "evince" or "okular". (Günter)
2. LyX-variant:
"It should work with "includeonly" if you have a Master document that
includes the existing documents source(s) + the new appendix.
After a first run which includes all sources (to get the references
right), you may exclude the main document and re-compile." (Günter)
3. LaTeX-variant:
"The LaTeX solution would be to use the xr package. See e.g. here
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/14364/cross-referencing-between-different-files
for some info on how to do that. LyX does not have any mechanism for
this, though, so you'd be using ERT." (Riki)
Such a wonderful community :-)
