Hi
Even though I am an old LaTeX user (but a new LyX user) for my current
purposes I would like to be able to print in a format very similar to
what I see on the screen in LyX. I do realise that LyX is not
intended to be wysiwyg but what I see on the screen (some basic text
and mathematics and nested itemised lists) is just about perfect for
what I need if I could just figure out how to print it so that the
printouts look like what I see on the screen.
I guess I don't understand what you mean. On the one hand, if you have
that on the screen, isn't it printed out that way? Aside from
re-formatting the text to fit the page width, of course. What else
about the way it looks on the screen do you not get on the printout?
On the other hand, why would you want it to look more like the screen
than the usual TeX output? TeX adds in ligatures and other fancy font
details, re-sets the page width and justification, and prints what you
wrote. Some fonts are different, but usually better than the on-screen
appearance. Why would you want it more like the screen?

And what if you track down these men and kill them, what if you killed
all of us? From every corner of Europe, hundreds, thousands would
rise up to take our places. Even Nazis can't kill that fast.
