  \title{A Sample {\ttlit VLDB} Proceedings Paper in LaTeX

  % ****************** AUTHORS **************************************
  
  % You need the command \numberofauthors to handle the 'placement
  % and alignment' of the authors beneath the title.
  %
  % For aesthetic reasons, we recommend 'three authors at a time'
  % i.e. three 'name/affiliation blocks' be placed beneath the title.
  %
  % NOTE: You are NOT restricted in how many 'rows' of
  % "name/affiliations" may appear. We just ask that you restrict
  % the number of 'columns' to three.
  %
  % Because of the available 'opening page real-estate'
  % we ask you to refrain from putting more than six authors
  % (two rows with three columns) beneath the article title.
  % More than six makes the first-page appear very cluttered indeed.
  %
  % Use the \alignauthor commands to handle the names
  % and affiliations for an 'aesthetic maximum' of six authors.
  % Add names, affiliations, addresses for
  % the seventh etc. author(s) as the argument for the
  % \additionalauthors command.
  % These 'additional authors' will be output/set for you
  % without further effort on your part as the last section in
  % the body of your article BEFORE References or any Appendices.
  
  \numberofauthors{8} %  in this sample file, there are a *total*
  % of EIGHT authors. SIX appear on the 'first-page' (for formatting
  % reasons) and the remaining two appear in the \additionalauthors section.
  
  \author{
  % You can go ahead and credit any number of authors here,
  % e.g. one 'row of three' or two rows (consisting of one row of three
  % and a second row of one, two or three).
  %
  % The command \alignauthor (no curly braces needed) should
  % precede each author name, affiliation/snail-mail address and
  % e-mail address. Additionally, tag each line of
  % affiliation/address with \affaddr, and tag the
  % e-mail address with \email.

  <p>also when i checked the title i see that:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Error in latexParagraphs: You should not mix title layouts with normal ones.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>however i see my the document as dvi,ps or pdf</p>
  
  <p>i'm not sure what causes the problem?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT</p>
  
  <p>WHILE converting from .lyx to pdf or dvi i still don't see the authors however, by using shell commands everthing is fine.
  i think this is a problem of lyx,
  i spend 8 hours to solve it, seriously i set up windows 7 lyx and tried there, still same.</p>
  
  <p>thanks lyx:) You are good when you are working properly.</p>
