While using system fonts is far more straightforward with xetex, using xetex
from LyX = 1.5 is not.

The LyX wiki has more info on this:

 Good afternoon,

 I've been using LyX some years ago and now that I have to prepare a large
 document again, I'm getting re-acquainted with it. Nice new features and
 interface.

 The problem that I am facing is that my organisation has its own TrueType
 interface and I would need to use it in my document. I have looked around
 forums and documentation literally all day and can't figure how to do this.
 The closest I got is doing the following:

 Use the MTFI to convert the font to a .sty and have it ready for LyX
 (following instructions found at
 http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinTips#toc3). This worked fine BUT

 all sections titles are back to the old font. If I use the SectSty package,
 they sections / subsections, ... have the right font but all appear with
 the same size. Seems like something is wrong.

 Is there an easy way to basically replace the document font with a
 different one? I would like to use LyX as is but with this dedicated
 font. Is there a tutorial that explains how to import fonts into LyX? If
 not, anybody willing to describe the process?

 Appreciate a lot the help in advance,
 Stéphan Picard
