No problem. I am reading the list.

I found the solution accidentally through Google at the following link
addressing my problem. Thank you Kornel Benko for the solution. I had no way
to reply to you using my system.

A workaround could be
preamble:
\input{dingbat.sty}

in Text (ERT) \anchor

The anchor abbeared in HUGE size in LyX, but I was able to reduce this size
to normal by highlighting the ERT box and using Text Style Customized, and
then selecting the smallest font size available: "tiny". This reduced the
size of the anchor to normal size in my text. So this workaround completely
fixed my problem, thanks to Kornel Benko.

Try it, you'll like it, but tell me in noob terms step by step how to get it
to appear in my .pdf document output.
Vector graphichs you say - but what format? ps? eps? pdf? svg? Something 
else?
LyX support some vector graphichs formats - just use Insert->Graphics 
and give the name of your vector graphics file.


If the format isn't supported, see if you can convert it to postscript 
or PDF.

I would not really re-invent the wheel but look in

http://ctan.mirror.ac.za/info/symbols/comprehensive/symbols-a4.pdf

load the required package and use a bit of ERT :-)-O

A workaround could be
preamble:
\input{dingbat.sty}

in Text (ERT) \anchor

My created My created vector graphics ⚓ symbol inputs to LyX but does not export to PDF XeTex

I have banged my head for hours against all of your instructions on how to
get my ⚓ to export from LyX to PDF XeTex.
Try it, you'll like it, but tell me in noob terms step by step how to get it
to appear in my .pdf document output.
In the place in my text where I insert  ⚓ in LyX, the symbol ⊠ appears in
the .pdf output.
Your help is appreciated.


Vilis' free anchor symbol. This is a text character which I created in
vector graphics (scalable) for text editors and word processors such as
Libre Office Writer (.odt) or Microsoft Word (.doc)

Thanks, 
Vilis
