Re: System Font issues: XeTeX and LuaTeX
Thanks for the note. The situation is workable, but fix before too long would be welcome.

I have also experienced this in one document, newly created in LyX 2.0beta2, using TeX Live 2010 on Ubuntu 10.10. In my case, I create the document, change to XeTeX in the font settings, then select some fonts for serif, sans-serif, and typewriter families, all at 100% scale. Proceed to write as normal, save, preview PDF (XeTeX), all looks well. Then close document. When I reopen the document, the font settings now look as Daron describes — XeTeX is still selected, the serif family is still correct, but sans-serif and typewriter are now set to default and 10% scale. However, if I preview my document the text set in typewriter is exported normally. Subsequently, editing the text of the document (whether that text was set in serif or typewriter) does not change the correct scaling in the PDF preview. Running LyX from the command line only gives this output, when I preview the PDF: This is XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.2-0.9997.4 (TeX Live 2010) restricted \write18 enabled. entering extended mode (./test_document.tex LaTeX2e <2009/09/24> Babel and hyphenation patterns for english, dumylang, nohyphenation, ge rman-x-2009-06-19, ngerman-x-2009-06-19, afrikaans, ancientgreek, ibycus, arabi c, armenian, basque, bulgarian, catalan, pinyin, coptic, croatian, czech, danis h, dutch, ukenglish, usenglishmax, esperanto, estonian, farsi, finnish, french, galician, german, ngerman, swissgerman, monogreek, greek, hungarian, icelandic , assamese, bengali, gujarati, hindi, kannada, malayalam, marathi, oriya, panja bi, tamil, telugu, indonesian, interlingua, irish, italian, kurmanji, lao, lati n, latvian, lithuanian, mongolian, mongolianlmc, bokmal, nynorsk, polish, portu guese, romanian, russian, sanskrit, serbian, slovak, slovenian, spanish, swedis h, turkish, turkmen, ukrainian, uppersorbian, welsh, loaded.
System Font issues: XeTeX and LuaTeX
Greetings all, I am using LyX 2 beta 2, and I have been trying out the use of system fonts with XeTeX and LuaTeX. Whenever I chose the fonts I want, I click apply, and then ok. If I exit the document and then reopen, the sans serif font and the typewriter font are reset to default, and the font scale is set to 10%. Both engines are happy with this, and all sans serif portions of the document are nicely typeset at 10% scale. As long as the documents remain open, the fonts and font scale I choose will stay selected, and the output is as expected. There seem to be no issues when I deselect XeTeX/LuaTeX in the font area of document settings--pdflatex has no scaling issues. I have experienced this problem both with documents that worked fine under older versions, and with documents newly created. Has anyone else experienced this problem, or could I get some suggestions for debugging? Regards, Daron
