 BTW, I notice that in the endocing drop-down list there are utf8 and UTF8
 (not to mention utf8-plain and utf8x). Does anyone know what the differences
 between them are?

It is described in the UserGuide in Attachment A.6 The Document Menu and
now also in http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Unicode.

In LyX 1.6 the encodings drop-down list will use user-friendly GUI names
(see also http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4971).

When trying to view the pdf file, lyx suggested to change the encoding to
utf8. I did, and the file compiles just fine.

 I am writing a paper with lyx, and for some reason viewing of exporting DVI

 narrow it down to the mathematical formulas. Something happened along the
 way that turned them into offending things. I can't even create a new
 formula and copy and paste the contents of the old ones, only retyping from
 scratch works.

 Anybody has an idea what's going on? I would hate to have to retype all the
 hundreds of formulas in this paper!

 I'll try to attach a sample lyx file, but I suspect it will be rejected.

 Thanks,

On further inspection, it turns out the culprit is the ellipsis, which you
input as a unicode character instead of \ldots.
