- Generating pdf-files, one obtains rather ugly bit-mapped fonts, until
one finds the trick (in the FAQs) of changing the fonts size to "ae"
in Document->Layout. Why not making this the default from the beginning?
Because "ae" aren't "real" fonts. For example accents and umlauts like
"ü" are made of "¨" + "u". This leads to problems when you are searching
in a PDF-file for a word like "über".
Using the latin modern fonts is a better option, see
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/PDF#badFonts
but they aren't in the standard version of all LaTeX-distributions, e.g.
not im MiKTeX's small version that is shipped with the installer.
= each C-d starts a new instance of Yap. This means that each time I have to
adapt Yap again by enlarging fonts, etc.
Use C-d only once and the C-S-d or the icon in the menu bar that is
between the DVI inco and the PDF(Acrobat) icon.
