Hello,
I have the same problem and the previous answer does not solve much.
In fact, I have tried changing the graphics driver (Document class / Graphics
driver) and requesting to view the output as PDF (ps2pdf, dvipdfm, pdflatex),
DVI and Postscript; even a combination of these techniques do not solve the
problem.
I also tried removing and reinstalling package psnfs which holds the files
upzd.fd and upsy.fd .
I am running Microsoft Windows XP with MikTex 2.9.3478 and LyX 1.6.8 (for
Windows).
The only solution I have found, for the moment, is to replace the file
pifont.sty with courier.sty. I think replace the file with any other working
font should work.
The exact error I get with the standard pifont.sty is the following (it is the
same as the topic creator):

I wasn't able to read the size data for this font,
so I will ignore the font specification.
[Wizards can fix TFM files using TFtoPL/PLtoTF.]
You might try inserting a different font spec;
e.g., type `I\font<same font id>=<substitute font name>'.
