What kind of information are you looking for ? Using a truetype font in
pdflatex (and therefore in LyX) is possible but is not trivial [but easier
than in plain LaTeX]. One subtle problem is that LaTeX uses ligatures and
that only a subset of commercial Truetype fonts have ligatures.

They are several howto on the Web like this one :

write into the preamble:

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}

if you do not have the latin modern fonts installed, then
use

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[scaled]{helvet}
\usepackage{mathptmx}

It's not possible to select these directly from within LyX?

Okay, I've seen that in the wiki lyx. So to have the latin modern
fonts installed, I need to install cm-super from CTAN, correct?

One more question: How do I know that True Type1 fonts are being used
in the pdf? What exactly should I see in the pdf under File-Document
settings-fonts ?  Right now, doing nothing, I see under the used
