Maybe an obvious suggestion, but have you made sure you have antialiasing 
turned on?

PDF documents tend to look a bit yucky whatever viewer you're using (although 
the printout quality is only marginally below that of PostScript).  Given 
that you have Ghostscript in Windows, why not export as PostScript rather 
than PDF?

To avoid misunderstanding; I meant if there is some Ghostscript software

Yes, you can download Aladdin Ghostscript and Ghostview for free.  Can't 
remember the site, but it should show up easily on any Internet search.

 I have to use Windows to print the documents I type in
 LyX. But the problem is that when I convert it to PDF
 it doesnt look very good in Acrobat Reader or
 Ghostscript for Windows. The fonts look very bad.
 Does anyone knows a workaround?

herbert voss told me you should try out an other font type in this case:
layout-document-font-pslatex
