Hi Bennet! I am not sure what is causing the problem. Installed LyX for a completely new user and it did not help - same problem. Interestingly, tough it happens ONLY for selected characters. It is like if it was just missing exactly one or two fonts but not more. I am quite confused here as not even hacking around like e.g., replace the xfonts dir by a backupped one etc helps...
I heard you took over from Ron for version 1.4.0, is that right? I would love to be a LyX tester for you whenever you need people to test the new version upon!! -Jan On Tue, 20 Jul 2004 09:13:14 -0400, Bennett Helm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On Jul 20, 2004, at 5:54 AM, Uwe Stöhr wrote: > > > Jan Peters wrote: > > > >> My problem is actually a problem with the on-screen fonts only - after > >> compiling it looks nice; already in the instant-preview! > >> Only on screen it will always replace my greek characters - and > >> changing the screen fonts does not help! > > I'm getting the same problem here. > > > You need to install the LaTeX XFT-fonts. > > Things are actually a bit more complicated than this.
