I have a more and more annoying problem. The pdf-files I create works
for about 90% of the colleagues I send them to. But on some computers
(or rather installations) the fonts get messed up. This has always been
on Windows machines (but that could be because almost all my colleagues
use that).
The problem can be that all text is typeset in a mono-spaced font, or
that the math-fonts disappear, or in printing (mainly I get described
by mail, so I can not get the details of the problem, but it seems to
differ).
An example is the file on http://homepage.mac.com/anek/Download/
Litteratur_utm_brottmek.pdf which, when I brought it up in Acrobat
Viewer (via IE) on a Windows machine, looked fine on screen, but then
printed with a mono-spaced font.
The problem has occurred with various versions of LyX 1.4 and with
different templates and ways to generate pdf (pdflatex, via dvi, via
postscript, etc).
Has anyone experienced anything similar. Or better still, does anyone
know about a cure?!
(The one I have is opening the file in GraphicConverter, saving as Tif,
re-opening and printing as pdf, but this is not really ideal...)

Hello Anders, your file printed fine here using Adobe Reader 7.
Everything lined up neatly on the RH margin and printed nicely with a
proportionally-spaced Roman font. Perhaps it's not a LyX/LaTeX problem?
Tell you what, it might be worth changing the language settings in Adobe
Reader to English, this is what I'm using. Just a thought.
Regards,
Nick.
