Your test exmaple is quite striking, as the latex file asks explicitly for Type 1 fonts and the pdf output has Type 3 fonts :-( If you cretae pdf docs for others using ps2pdf, you will be better with embedded fonts as well. I have added an entry in the pdf FAQ about this in the wiki: http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/PDF#toc19 -- Jean-Pierre
