What font choices are available? How does one select a non-standard
font? Typically I use fonts such as Bitstream Charter, Adobe
Garamond, Nimbus etc. etc. In plain TeX or pdftex I can just use a
\font statement. I see no easy way to select them under Lyx.

If one wants to use ttf or otf fonts via luatex is this possible in
Lyx? Or do I need to export a LaTeX file from Lyx and hand modify it?

Not simple I am afraid.
You may have to save as latex and then use pstricks.sty in that file. Or you
can try manipulating pstricks from within Lyx b
looked like this.
A thought: prepare a typical document both ways and then show management
the differences. Point out the difference between letter kerning and
blank space kerning. Worth a shot. Probably won't work.

(VI, Notepad, whatever.) Then process as a regular LaTeX file. (latex
foo.tex; dvips foo.dvi; print or view foo.ps.) If you can deal with your
document completely within Lyx that is of course desirable, but when
that proves difficult there are other paths that combine
n.tex with Lyx but the manual and the example files may prove
enlightening. It follows the LaTeX method pretty closely.

e value of Lyx in that you do on screen WYSIWYM
editing. But the final step is reediting the LaTeX output in a text
editor to use your required class. Remember Lyx is at the bottom just a
front end to LaTeX. You can output the text and deal with LaTeX directly
if needed.

Just my 2c. If I use pdftex some of my pstricks specials get messed up.
If I create a ps file from the dvi file and then use ps2pdf things work
better. For a Lyx user, if Lyx will
produce an acceptable ps file with whatever kind of graphics you have
then perhaps ps2pdf could then create the rig

Currently I highlight each paragraph and change it to \large type size.
Is there a way to do this globally in Lyx?? (I can figure out how to do

vim it works fine. Is there a basic

it in the file right after the \begin{document} tag?
I don't say \usepackage[2up.sty} because 2up.sty contains just a single
input statement so I eliminate the middleman :-)
