If you want to use a sans serif font as the global font, put the following in the preamble: \renewcommand\familydefault{\sfdefault} It will not change the font on the LyX screen, but it will change the font in the dvi/postscript file. You can also create a layout file that changes the display font.

2 columns document with columns of different width
I would like to know if it is possible to create a document wich has 2 columns of different width, for exemple a wide column at the right side of the page, approx 13 cm wide, and a smaller one of 4 cm at the left side. The main text would be in the main column, and the left column would be used only for section or subsections titles, tables titles, or figures titles. I tried with a reverse margin note but I lost the result if I change the basic font of the document from time to helvetica for instance. I'm responsible for Education Bulletins where I work and I would like to give a try to LyX for documents such as this one: http://www.meq.gouv.qc.ca/STAT/Bulletin/bulletin_15.pdf (225 ko in french) or http://www.meq.gouv.qc.ca/STAT/Bulletin/bulletin_15an.pdf (177 ko translated in english).
