Uwe -
Thanks for the reply. I do not understand:

I do not think this explains the problem. LyX exports a tex file. Both my
collaborators and I can typeset this file correctly. But they (several
different individuals) can not make sense of the tex file, I guess because they
do not use the same encodings as LyX. Since they are editing the tex file
directly this is a problem.
Thanks,
Hal
