Dear LyX Users,
I've run up against a problem that I don't know how to solve. I've
spent the last several days putting together a document class that
matches the style of my book publisher. Because it uses an Open Type
font, I created it as a XeLaTeX class. I've set up my xetex per the
instructions on the LyX wiki and have been using it for several weeks
without trouble.
On the document class side of things, everything appears to be working.
The fonts are properly loaded and all of my custom macros are working.
On the LyX side of things, the outlook isn't nearly rosy. While the
document will compile without problems, it insists on using the wrong
font - I think it's computer modern (whatever it is, it's a bitmap font
and hideously ugly).
Moreover, it insists on using this font no matter what I do to change
it. I've tried changing it from the Gui. I've tried adding things to
the LaTeX preamble. Neither works.
What's even more strange, when I export it to standard LaTeX and try and
get things to work right from the command line, I have the same
problems. I can get it to compile correctly if I go in and modify the
exported LaTeX. Here's what LyX exports:
\documentclass[oneside,english]{rapidBook}
\usepackage{mathpazo}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
...
If I delete \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}, then it will compile with the
correct fonts. What I don't understand, however, is why this package is
being added to my LaTeX output. How can I tell LyX to not add this
package? Is there something in my layout file that is causing it?
Any insights would be extremely appreciated.
Cheers,
Rob
