Firstly, insert the PDF pages as figures, which appears to be what you have been doing, but then use the clipping option to clip an existing border from the inserted page. This will only work if the inserted PDF page has a margin as large as the margin in the LyX document. Secondly, you can insert blank pages in your LyX document where you want the PDF pages inserted, and put the real pages into your exported PDF file using pdftk. The third way is to use the pdfpages package. This is supported in LyX 2.0 through Insert->File->External Material. I don't remember if it is supported in earlier versions, but even if it isn't you can use LaTeX code to make it work. See the LaTeX documentation for the package: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages/ Les
