Hi Rich
I don't use Lyx for invoices or any documents with calculations in them.
Instead I use Latex usually (depending on what I am doing) with the
letter class adapted for window envelopes and my header. Latex takes
care of the typesetting and a program called Scrivener looks after the
arithmetic. Scrivener is quite an old program, originally written for
CPM (it was on the Amstrad Joyce computer if you remember that) and
rewritten for MSDOS but it works well for me on Linux using dosemu. It
helps me to produce typeset documents such as payslips, remittance
advices and lots more - even annual financial statements.
Merry Christmas
