I recently downloaded LyX and am trying to use the tutorial and start out by following the instruction to create a simple DVI file out of 'This is my first LyX document!', but something seems to be wrong, as every time I try to do so, only the following message pops up:<< Warning font "ecrm1000" ("ecrm1000") not in font dictionary Cannot read DVI Preamble!>>
As John wrote you need to install special DVI fonts. This is nevertheless strange because the ec fonts are the standard fonts and thus are by default available on all systems. What is your OS and what your LaTeX distribution?
However, viewing the file as PDF should work in any case. regards Uwe
