I have used Lyx to write a provisional patent. I've attached a very brief
example of how you can do it. You will need lineno.sty, see
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/lineno.html
I don't know how this package will go with two column mode though.

A virtual energy density sensor for active noise control
\layout Standard
This invention relates to a new type of sensor for active noise control
systems.
In most conventional active noise control systems microphones are used
as pressure error sensors.
These tend to lead to poor global control in heavily damped enclosures,
but they do tend to produce small, well controlled regions at the sensor.
As an alternative to minimising pressures at the microphone locations,
it is possible to control energy density.
This has been shown to produce a broader zone of local control, but still
localised to the actual transducers.
\layout Standard
The invention which is the subject of this document has the advantage that
it it can sense, and therefore control, energy density at any location
near to the actual transducers.
The advantage of this approach is that the bulky transducer arrangement
used to sense energy density is moved away from the desired control location
(typically a passengers head).
The way this is achieved is by using a 7-microphone transducer arrangement
for three-dimensional sound fields (or 3-microphone transducer for one-dimensio
nal sound fields).
