Another unique selling point of Word is the language checker (spell and

fewer language issues that have to be corrected by editors.
Very good point. I often do get the comment that I should run the spell checker. But it takes the same amount of time to check with the Lyx spell checker and train it all the technical terms as printing and correcting it manually.

I still use Word for the final spell check of my documents. After the
LyX spell checker run and proof-reading everything, I just copy the
whole text into an empty word document and look for suspicious red and
green lines.
How to you do this?
I can't copy anything from Lyx to another program on Ubuntu Feisty (V. 1.4.3).
Selections I do within Lyx are ignored by other programs.

You will be pleased by 1.5.0 :-)
