[Tex/LaTex] Preparing a Latex submission to a journal via Editorial Manager

bibtexjournal-publishinglyx

I'm attempting to submit a paper written in Lyx (references using bibtex) to a journal that uses Editorial Manager (I'm a total novice here). The journal has instructions for submitting Tex submission files but asks for the following files that I have no idea how to generate or locate:
testtex.tex (as manuscript item)
testclo.clo (as manuscript item)
testclass.cls (as manuscript item)
teststyle.sty (as manuscript item)
testbest.bst (as manuscript item)

Does anyone know how to find/generate these files? I realize that some are bibtex (rather than TeX) files but I'm not sure how to get these either. Any help would be appreciated.

Starting with LyX 2.2.0, the file in-between a .lyx file and the output .pdf file are more accessible. To get all of the files, do the following:

  1. View the document (e.g. click on the eyes icon).
  2. Go back to LyX and go to Document > LaTeX Log.
  3. In that dialog, click on the "Open Containing Directory" button.

A directory will pop up with all files that were used to create the PDF.

If you happen to be using Linux, these files can alternatively be located by just navigating to the folder /tmp/lyx_tmpdir*/lyx_tmpbuf0 or something like that. I'm not sure how it works on Mac or Windows.
