As example, by modifying line 5 of lyx.css from
font: x-small serif;
to
font: small sans-serif;
and then adding the line
font-family: serif;

Yes,
This kind of modifications incorporate more screen-friendly display.
I have updated the CSS file in version 0.27 following Olivier's suggestions:

Actually, I think you could do even better (more challenges) ;-). I
haven't touched CSS for years, so there might be innacuracies in the
following ideas.
The LyX user can choose its font-family in the documents settings. I'm
not sure, but I think it's in the .lyx at the line:
\font_default_family sfdefault
It would be nice if elyxer could somehow parse that. I see several ways
to do so:
1- maintain 2-3 CSS (one for sans, one for serif, perhaps one for
monospace) and link to the relevant one.
2- use a CSS with things in common and another one with just the
differences (in this case, the font-family attribute of the body element).
3- use a CSS for the common stuff (i.e. do not specify the font-family
in the body element), and have elyxer add to the head
<style type="text/css">
body {
font-family: sans-serif;}
</style>
with the font-family mentionned in the lyx file.
I think solution 3 is by far the most elegant one. And it work on FF3
and IE8.
It is then also possible to imagine elyxer parsing other attributes:
\paperfontsize 10
is most likely the line for the "base size", usually 10, 11 and 12 in
the settings. That could help setting the base size (x-small, small,
etc.) However, it might not be that good an idea...
What do you think ?
Best regards,
Olivier
PS: Of course, the .formula change should stay: equations never look
good with a monospace or a sasn-serif font.
