Odd. The problem went away. There appears to be an intermittant fault such that when acroread is launched directly from lyx that much of the text disapears and errors about a font being missing (the font name being random garbage). It seems that this fault was aggravated, not caused by the "\#". This fault occurs on my Fedora machine. I don't think I've ever noticed it on ubuntu. -- John C.
