Acrobat attempts to substitute for a suitable font.
The issue is with this code:
% set fonts for nicer pdf view
\IfFileExists{lmodern.sty}{\usepackage{lmodern}}{%
\usepackage[scaled=0.92]{helvet}
\usepackage{mathptmx}
\usepackage{courier} }
TexLive puts lmodern.sty under /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/lm
Tetex-base puts lmodern.sty under the same pathway. You can rule out it
being an improperly installed tex distribution or you can deduce both
the tetex and texlive distributions from Debian are broken against what
LyX expects to find lmodern.sty.
Interestingly, if I remove the
\IfFileExists{lmodern.sty}{\usepackage{lmodern}}{%}
and leave:
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage[scaled=0.92]{helvet}
\usepackage{mathptmx}
\usepackage{courier}
the User Guide export to pdf via pdflatex works flawlessly. The
offending area is the code for \IfFileExists.
