Hi Paul, My experience has been that LyX's default font is so light and thready that it's hard to read. Lacks contrast. I set it to Century Schoolbook and that problem goes away.

contrast of pdf files
Hi I produce a newsletter for my local rugby club, in a mix of LyX and LaTeX, I have been informed that for some people the pdf is hard to read, I just wondered if there was anything I could do about this, perhaps as its a pdf with black text and a white background is there a way to alter the back ground colour of the pdf file so its slightly off white, which could make it easier to read. thanks, Paul -- Paul Sutton Cert SLPS (Open) http://www.zleap.net Saturday 2nd April 2011 - Linux user group meeting, Shoreline Bar and Restaurant, Paignton Seafront, from 14:30 if you drop in From 15:00 members will be available to talk to you about how perhaps Free and Open Source software can save you money.
