There are several cases of symbol-characters in LyX:

1. ERT (LyX shows the symbol name in red) in a LaTeX box in text

2. ERT (LyX shows the symbol name in red) in mathed

3. Unicode character in text

4. Unicode character in mathed

5. math-symbol in mathed (LyX changes the input text into a symbol or
   supports inserting via menu).
   
   
* With 1) and 2), you are on your own - see in the symbol list which
  package is required and add it to the user-preamble.  

* Variants 3 to 5 should auto-load a package if required.
  If not, file a bug report (or mail to the list) which symbols fail and
  whether in text or math mode.
  
  You can also try to copy the "unicodesymbols" file from the LyX dir to the
  LyX user dir (~/.lyx/ on Unix) and add definitions for missing characters.
  (post your patches...).

In addition, not all of the packages listed there work together and some
nameclashes exist...

I think a general user-friendly feature to turn some insets into others
(perhaps which can be converted to which can be specified in the
definition of the layout).

Hi,

Is there a way to make all my LyX notes visible as notes (or so) on the PDF?


You could probably redefine the note inset in local layout, or you could
use inset-forall to convert a LyX note to e.g. a Greyed Out inset.


Thanks! I'll give it a try. I guess would be a nice feature if one sends 
one's drafts to someone who does not have LyX. Maybe I can even manage 
to have the standard PDF comments from the PDF Comments module. Wouldn't 
it be nice to have such a feature integrated directly into the module?
