I *guess* that at least one of your fonts is missing a bold variant
and Times Bold is used as fallback.
Indeed!
Maybe defining a different fallback font could help (or eleminating
the bold text part or setting it in a font that has a bold variant or
...)
I would I define a different fall-back font? The Digohweli font does not
have any variations to it. :(
I currently have the following in my header:

Re: Drag and Drop
"Drag and drop" text is one the most annoying things I have found with word processors. It is too easy to do it by accident, not notice, and output garbage for people to read.

Re: Typing some text in Lyx with capital letters

Re: RPG Manual with Lyx?
Luca De Marini wrote: Hallo everybody, I'm writing this because I'd like to start a new adventure in lyx now that I know a lot about this tool, only fronted-side, not code or LaTex side, sorry. So, I'm writing a Role Playing game manual here in Italy and my idea is that of trying to write it with an opensource software. Now, of course I know that for typography the best tool is Scribus. BUT, I love Lyx and I managed to create a fantastic colorful thesis for my Architectural studies with it. It was a 2 columns document with notes, pictures, etc. An RPG manual is something way more elaborated. WAY MORE. Have a look at white wolf's manuals to understand the extent of the graphical effort I'm going to achieve. The problem is, many things cannot be done, from my point of view, in Lyx to achieve this result. And maybe this is simply not the tool intended for this kind of result. I need 2 columns pages (OK) with the possibility to use a picture as a frame for the entire page, or as a background if you prefer. This picture should be changeable from a section or from a chapter to another. Say, this chapter has a picture frame of one kind, then changng chapter I can change the background picture again, etc. There is a package called 'wallpaper' that may do this very well with a little bit of ERT. Not only that. I need to be able to put parts of a text, like a citation, a small emphasized part of the text, something to be outlined, into a fancy small picture used as a background for it. Fancy tables would be needed too, but this could even be used with a work-around: I create the tables in Gimp or something similar, save them as picture and import them into the Lyx document in a Floating Table frame (for table indexing later). Now, why I wanna do it in Lyx? Many reasons, the main reasons are: 1) I love Lyx 2) Lyx documents look incredible, very nice, very professional. Everything is automated and done for good, it is NOT a WYSIWYG and this is nice to keep focused on the contents. 3) I'm an opensource fan and leader of a GNU / LInux distro (OPenGEU) and I'd like to show off to the world the powers of opensource software. Lyx is in my opinion the best thing around in opensource documents managing. 4) Currently all of this is impossible to do in Lyx with normal tools and GUI commands. Probably the result is achievable with complex code to be inserted here and there. This is NOT the solution. People cannot use code, you can't ask people to. So, probably this effort will help Lyx become more powerful, many new small adjustements could be implemented with a work of this kind. Everybody, coders, users, everyone is invited in participating. I think this is a great occasion to have a powerfuller Lyx, able of achieving even more incredible results in many more fields of documents processing. Do you think this is achievable? Anyone wanna help? Remember I'm not trying to do this for my only personal achievement. It costs zero to me using Scribus instead and living Lyx alone.

I just installed LyX-163-4-19 AltInstaller Complete and the installation proceeded perfectly installing everythin in Program (x86) files. However, when starting LyX for the first time, The dos windows open for a very short time and LyX started nearly immediately without checking which class of documents were available. In fact none of them are available even if they are listed in document parameters. I launched reconfiguration in the tools but nothing happened. Oups ! I believe that the AltInstaller is not to be used for a first installation Shall I uninstall and reinstall with the common one or is there a possibility to adjust the think Any suggestion to go further, Nevertheless, I proceeded to the same installation on my 1.6.2 on Windows XP Pro SP3 which was installed with the AltInstaller and I have the same problem : No more class of documents available and the 1.6.2 which is still existing is also corrupted the same way How can I proceed to clean it. I am afraid because I have a lot of documents which cannot be exported to any type of pdf. When I open any document, LyX is telling that the corresponding class is not available. However when I click on the class button, the list of the style command inside the corresponding class are displayed even the button is keeping the standard display. Also when I click on one style i.e. theorem the fonction is selected . !!
