Hi,
I seem to have been able to install a font (called allrunes) in tex, but I've got no idea how to test it.
When I do reconfigure from lyx, I expected it to be in the layout charcter or layour document window.
it turned out to be an illusion, after generating all kind of files with latex and doing a texhash, lyx doesn't seem to know anything about it.
How can I make lyx know about a new font?
You can't. Fonts in LyX are "hardwired" - you only get the standard eX
fonts in the fonts dialogue. To use other fonts you need ERT. See
www.bilkent.edu.tr/~robin/lyxfonts2.lyx
and... what kind of electroshock therapy is needed to make the latex/lyx stuff become clear and simple :-) ?
