This isn't really a Lyx problem but I am just wondering if anyone has observed this behaviour before.
I created a PDF of a chapter of my thesis for my supervisor. I had used the View-pdflatex and then saved the file. I mailed it to my win95 machine and viewed it in Adobe Acrobat to verify that everything looked fine. It looked great. I then printed it to my HP4MV and midway through the document alternate characters start showing up. I then send it to the HP4MV again but this time I send it to the instance where it is configured as a Postcript printer (it is autosensing so that shouldn't really be an issue). This time it is flawless. I then went back to my Linux box and use the export command to generate PDFs. I use PDF, pdflatex, and PS. The first two look pretty rough in Acrobat on the PC but look fine on paper. The ps file wouldn't work in ghostview so I had to convert it on the Linux box to a PDF and again, it looked rough but printed ok. So, I guess the questions I have are: 1) Has anyone seen this before? 2) Is there a solution, or just a work around? 3) What method do you folks use to generate PDFs for others to view?
