If this means that they want scalable fonts in the PDF file (which isn't
quite the same thing than "readable on screen"), there are tons of
options. On way is to use pdflatex (and remove line
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} from the LaTeX file generated by LyX before
running it through pdflatex), another is to select
"Layout/Document/Fonts/pslatex" and use ps2pdf. If you do the latter, you
get helvetica vector fonts by selecting your text and setting
"Layout/Character/Family/Sans Serif".

If you have math in your document then it won't be that easy.

I did a search in http://www.dante.de/cgi-bin/ctan-index and couldn't find
anything. Perhaps others can help?
