Would something like this apply to MiKTex 2.6 and MiKTeX 2.7 (beta) together on an XP machine. MiKTeX 2.7 has XeTeX, with which I'm interested in experimenting, but not at the expense of causing problems with LyX.
Well, I've bitten the bullet and installed MiKTeX 2.7 (beta 3) alongside MiKTeX 2.6 and it works as it should without interfering with LyX. I'm still using 2.6 with LyX, of course.
I do like being able to use ttf fonts in XeLaTeX, Gentium works out of the box. In fact, all of my Truetype and Opentype fonts work out of the box.
Looking forward to seeing LyX working with XeLaTeX. Regards, Nick. -- Nick and Anne Hopton, Caversham, Reading, England.
