I had recently uninstalled the Lyx 1.3.7 'complete installer', then I installed the new LyX. Does the uninstaller sometimes delete files during reboot? Perhaps these files were replaced by the new installed, but marked for deletion by the old uninstaller? Could that be happening? BTW where do these files live once installed -- can I check if they're there or not? I'll install the extra fonts when I'm back at that machine. Thanks both of you for the help, Cheers JP
