This appears to have been resolved earlier on this list. However... Issue is: Fonts are ugly and hard to read in exported pdf.
One reply was to see (lyx 1.1.6fix4) Help -> Extended Features: Section 3.3.6.2, i.e., put \usepackage{ae,aecompl} in preamble. Then someone said that selecting ae fonts (Layout -> Document) should be all that's needed. No preamble changes. I replied that this works. It seems I was incorrect. The only way I can get good looking fonts (and searchable text) in pdf is by putting \usepackage{ae,aecompl} in the preamble. Note that aecompl is needed, ae alone will not do it.
