I can't afford that issue. Sorry, it should read: It is not sure - at least STF did *not* say so - the PDF file Adobe Acrobat Reader didn't display was produced by LyX. And in case it came from LyX then it's a problem with the LaTeX-PDF-writer tools used by LyX. So, probably it will be difficult to solve this issue for LyX developers.
