OK then we need to do another round of you exporting to .tex. The reason is that I do not have dvipost installed (and it is not in the repos for Ubuntu 15.04) so I cannot compile the .tex files that you sent nor can I compare your .tex files with the output I get. This is because LyX generates different .tex code based on which packages you have installed. If you reexport the .lyx file to .tex then I can do the above comparisons because now that you have uninstalled dvipost LyX will generate .tex output for you that is comparable with mine. Sorry to put you through several iterations of this but after one more round we should know whether the problem is that LyX is producing bad .tex for you or the .tex code is good but something goes wrong with the compilation. > > > Regarding XeTeX, it's installed, and I have the option to export to "LaTeX > > > (XeTeX)", but there's no option in Document > View (Other Formats) that > > > mentions XeTeX. > > > > I find this strange.

Ah makes sense. This is good to know. Scott
