Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: lyx
The pdf files that lyx produces (pdflatex, ps2pdf and dvipdfm) have type
3 (bitmap) fonts embedded in them. They should have type 1 (vector)
fonts instead.
I'm not sure if this is a lyx or a tetex / texlive bug. lyx 1.4.3 and
1.5 exhibit the same behavior with both sets of latex packages. I'm
filing it here because I don't see any way to change lyx's behavior to
work with ubuntu's latex.
The line in the exported latex that seems to be causing the problem is:
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
This command typically causes latex to use type 1 fonts.
I see the problem with the feisty and current gutsy latex and lyx
packages. Here's a set of packages that exhibits the problem:
tex-common 1.9
texlive-base texlive-common texlive-fonts-recommended texlive-latex-base
texlive-latex-recommended 2007-10
texlive-doc-base 2007-3
texlive-base-bin 2007-12ubuntu3
lyx 1.5.0-0ubuntu2
lyx-common 1.5.0-0ubuntu2
** Affects: lyx (Ubuntu)
