I am a little confused over which is best method for changing the
document font and the font used in mathematical equations. I don't want
any particularly unusual fonts: Times, Helvetica and Courier and about
all I need really. Can anyone let me know what the easiest method of
changing the font for both text and equations is?
Recommended reading: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Fonts. I have to admit
though that I don't understand exactly what is wrong with LyX's font
selection mechanism. I routinely use Document->Settings...->Text
layout->Document font to change font and size, and it seems to work ok
for me. (I usually restrict myself to ae or pslatex, and I don't lose
any sleep over the precise font used for math insets, so maybe I've just
led a charmed life so far.) To switch the math font, you'll want to
load an appropriate package in the preamble (as demonstrated in the wiki
citation above).
