Hi el,

If I get a Word doc, it opens in libreoffice, which allows for export to pdf.  
If I recall, I generally 
either highlight the words involved while in libreoffice and paste directly to 
lyx or instead export 
to pdf, highlight the relevant portions of the pdf and paste to lyx. 

It took me forever to get the ps2pdf right (so it would become pleading paper, 
with a vertical 
line followed by line numbers to the left of the page.  When I use anything 
else I have to load 
pleading paper and use that.

I plan to try your PDF5 trick this weekend.

John
