Fonts available for output?

2010-10-13 Thread Etienne Snyman 
Hi there!

Does anyone know of a list of fonts that are available for use by
LyX/LaTeX? I Googled a bit, but I was not able to really understand what
the results were telling me.

Basicaly, I would like to know which fonts are supported to be used in the
output. I realise that LaTeX/LyX doesn't use TTF/OTF -type fonts, but a
different sort of font, so I would like to know which ones are supported,
and if one can preview them somewhere.

Thanks so much

Hi Etienne,
LyX uses Latex to compose the documents. As a consequence, you should be 
able to use all font packages that are available for Latex. The 
following page gives an interesting gallery for these fonts:


http://www.tug.dk/FontCatalogue/

If the package is not already installed in your Latex system, you must 
install it using a standard procedure (the package manager in TexLive or 
MikTex, for example), and introduce the necessary \usepackage statements 
in the preamble of your document.


I hope this helps.

You can see some of the fonts available in Settings  Fonts.

You can use system fonts via XeTeX. LyX 2.0 alpha supports this
(Settings  Output), while 1.6.x needs some manual work. Search the
wiki. Regards

Hey there.

Actually, I think it would be great to publish the work via XeTeX! I 
didn't know there was planned integration! Thanks, I'll do this in the 
future. First, of course (as Julien would tell me) I need to get the 
content finished before the tweaking can begin.


Cheers!
