Best regards

Hi Helge,
thanks for your hint.

Use "xpdf" instead of kpdf - xpdf will happily let you paste "äöüß"
into LyX.  I just tested by exporting that text from LyX to pdf,
and reimport it.
Unfortunately it doesn't work for me
Try making an "Ä" in LyX, view->PDF. Then try copying that "Ä"
back to LyX.

If this works but the other pdf fails, then word has a different way
of making pdf, and I don't know any better solution that search+replace.

If copy+paste fails for a LyX-made pdf too, then there is some
kind of encoding problem which might be solveable, as it works for me.
Could you send me a word-made pdf (assuming you have something
non-confidential?) I can try it, and then we can look at software
versions and setup issues.

Do you have LANG set to a utf-8 locale?
I use LANG=nb_NO.UTF-8, I guess a suitable german locale would be
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 ?

Using an iso8859 locale could cause trouble. It may be a good
idea to have to locale set right even before X starts, as
X itself is involved in managing the clipboard.
