Which logfile should I check? The dialogue /documents/settings/fonts/use non-Tex fonts via XeTex/LuaTex, is greyed out. The package fontspec needs to be installed to use this dialogue box, it is installed in TexLive2011 (/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist/tex/latex/fontspec/fontspec.sty) on my system, but the box is still greyed out. Do you need to put \usepackage{fontspec} in the preamble of every document to use XeTex ? Alasdair
