Glad to hear it worked!
As an aside, please reply back to the whole list: other people may
encounter similar problems in the future, and searching the list will turn
out a solution.
Also, when confronting this kind of issues (fonts work in LyX, but pdf
output is screwed up), you may want to try a font with very extensive
coverage, such as Libertine [1] or the texGyre font family [2] to rule out
font-related issues. They are not particularly beautiful, but they are both
free. Installation methods will vary depending on your platform (i.e.
Windows, Max, Linux).
