This is about 8-bit TeX fonts, that usually come with a LaTeX package to use them or some other description/examples for use with LaTeX. In your case, you should set [x] use non-TeX fonts (or whatever it is called nowadays) in Document>Settings>Fonts and then select your font from the list. This will use XeTeX or LuaTeX for compilation - TeX-engines that can work with Unicode-encoded system fonts. Remember, that in LyX the screen font and the document font will usually differ: to change the screen font, use Tools>Settings. Günter
