Which fonts to match LyX output in other applications?
Hello, I need to create some figures for inclusion in a LyX document, using different Windows applications (mainly Corel Draw and MATLAB). I want the font in these figures to be as close as possible to the fonts in my main document. How can I find out which fonts I should use to match a) the normal text font b) the math mode font (for both latin and greek letters) and where do I find the appropriote font files? The current document in question uses book (koma-script) with all font settings on standard. I know there is PSfrag and I have experimented with it, but I do not really want to use it. I would prefer a simpler (and less perfectly looking) solution. Thanks Matthias

Thanks Matthias Hi, I think the default are Computer Modern or Latin Modern, and according to wikipedia, you can download ttf versions at http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/cm/ps-type1/bakoma/ttf/ The file names there remind me of what I used 10 years ago to solve the same problem.
