Hi all,

I've gone through the Introduction and Tutorial, and have skimmed the
User's Guide, but I can't find any mention of this problem anywhere.  A
google search was also fruitless, as was a search of this list's archive.

I've just been following the tutorial, and have corrected the
example_raw.lyx file.  I wanted to output the file to postscript so that I
could look at it with gv (or print it, or whatever).  When I go to
File->Export->PostScript, LyX thinks awhile, then pops up a window that
says:

There were errors during the LaTeX run.
8 errors detected.
You should try to fix them.

I close the error window, and I see a bunch of "Error" boxes in my
document.  When I click on one of them, it gives me a message like this:


Font T1/cmr/m/n/14.4=ecrm1440 at 14.4pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file
not f
\maketitle

I wasn't able to read the size data for this font,
so I will ignore the font specification.
[Wizards can fix TFM files using TFtoPL/PLtoTF.]
You might try inserting a different font spec;
e.g., type `|\font<same font id>=<substitute font name>'.


I've just installed the LyX rpm (along with the tetex-lyx rpm) from the
bin directory of the ftp site at lyx.org.  I'm using version 1.1.6fix3 of
each.  As far as I can tell, I have all the other required rpms installed
also, specifically:
xforms 0.88
tetex 1.0.6
tetex-latex 1.0.6
ghostscript 5.50
gv 3.5.8

I know I'm missing something, and I'm eager to make LyX a part of my
everyday computing. :)

Thanks for any help you can provide,
Will Robinson
