Hello, This is a someone-please-explain question rather than a how-to question. I've been experimenting with LyX and LaTeX for producing PDFs. I want to write documents at home and print them on the laser-printer at work. It's all Windows at the office.
The PDFs that I produce look beautiful in GhostView at home, but when I open them in Acrobat for Windows, the fonts look hideous! I don't much care because the printed copy looks great - better than I could produce with Word, with so much less frustration. Why does this happen? Is it because the (expensive) laser-printer at work has the right fonts programmed into it, but regular Windows desktops don't? Should I worry that if I try to print on a different printer, I might get an incompatible font? Should I somehow install more fonts on my Linux box? I'm running Debian Unstable.
