Thanks, I did.
The first suggestion:
Put
p+ psfonts.cmz
p+ psfonts.amz
in ~/.dvipsrc
makes no diff.
The second suggestion: putting
\usepackage{ae,aecompl}
did work! PDF looks good!
The third suggestion, which I mentioned in my previous msg., i.e., use
pslatex fonts inst. of default, works OK but the fonts are not as nice as
latex fonts.
So:
----------------------------
PUT
\usepackage{ae,aecompl}
IN THE PREAMBLE!
This is very valuable info for all latex users and probably should be
advertised. I looked for pdf font fixes for latex with google and only
found lengthy explanations of how complicated the whole font issue is...
Maybe LyX should put \usepackage{ae,aecompl} in the preamble by default
(at least when exporting to pdf).
