The way I understand LyX printing, is that LyX basically do an

I propose to implement another printing preference, that allows
switching the printing to use an "export->pdflatex"
instead.
Good idea, if only for "print as file".
I definitely meant "print to printer", not "print to file".
Those who want a file can still use File->export->pdflatex.
Not only is this noticeably faster, but it also
support printing documents using the microtype package.
Modern LaTeX distributions use pdflatex also for DVI output.
Nice - that means the problem will go away. But what latex
distributions are considered "new"? I am using texlive from
debian unstable, which is usually recent enough.
Still, view->pdf and view->dvi comes up different when microtype
is in use.
