More on the xetexCV layout. You don't actually have to specify Fontin Regular and Fontin Sans in Document -> Settings -> Fonts as the xetexCV class specifies those fonts as the defaults already. If you don't have the Fontin fonts installed and don't specify others, then you'll get errors about mis

If working with the terminal and configuration variables put you out of your depth, then TeX and LyX may not be appropriate tools until you're more familiar with OS X. In any case, I should follow my own advice and read the documentation (it's been a while since I've done this). The xetexCV.cls c

Sorry, you're probably are looking in the right place, my bad. In the Terrminal, use this command: kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFHOME If the result is something like this: /Users/justin/Library/texmf (where 'justin' is the name of your home directory) But the 'termf' directory doesn't exist, try

The instructions you linked to are out of date in places and incomplete with reference to dealing with MacTeX. Put the xetexCV.cls file here: ~/Library/texmf Reconfigure is under the LyX menu: LyX -> Reconfigure When you start your document, point it to your local layout: Document -> Settings
