Here's a message to JMarc. He confirmed I should send it in as a bug
report.

Subject: LyX bug?

I think you've mentioned before that lyx creates weird latex sometimes for
character changes. I think the example you gave was for underlined
sans-serif. I think I've found another bug, but I wanted to check with you
before sending it to the list.

In a tex document, I write:

{\small 12 \AA is a lot}

reLyX (correctly :) creates lyx that says:

\size small 
12 
\latex latex 

\backslash AA 
\latex default 
is a lot
\size default

When I view dvi, I get different results. Specifically, I get "12 �is a
lot" for latex (correct latex behavior, though it looks bad), and "12� is
a lot" for lyx. That's wrong! It's even worse in the poster I'm writing,
where I have a latex newcommand defined as "�ngstr�m", and when I try to
write the plural, the 's' ends up being its own word.

It appears that the latex created confuses the commands. When I export the
above example, I get:

{\small 12}{\small  \AA} {\small is a lot}{\small \par}

Bad!

Any thoughts?
