I suggest you try switching your DVI viewer choice in LyX to yap (temporarily). If you can view DVI output, something may be wrong with the configuration of Evince (or maybe how LyX is passing arguments to it). If yap doesn't work either, something may be configured incorrectly in LyX.

Hi Paul. Thanks for mentioning that.

I did a search for the yap.exe viewer using Everything Search program from http://www.voidtools.com/download.php

Ran the yap.exe from a CL prompt, and was told it is not set as the default DVI viewer - so I set it as that. And got it to run from the command line, so I know LyX can find the exe file.

In LyX under Tools->Preferences->File formats I set yap as the viewer for DraftDVI and DVI.

Closed that down, and in the LyX GUI I selected View->DVI, and Yap opens with the following error message:

Is there a problem with Yap not being able to generate the needed fonts?

Kind Regards,
