No. Normal LaTeX can only access its own fonts (which are usually PostScript fonts). You can access system (OpenType) fonts with LaTeX derivates such as XeTeX, which is not fully supported by LyX, though. Jürgen
Changing the fonts of the Document
I'm new to LyX, and it looks like an exciting way to create documents. One problem I'm having is: How can I change the document's font? I understand WYSIWYM, and that I shouldn't hand edit fonts. But how can I say that, in this document, a particular style should be in a particular font? Or, that this document should use margins of this length? Is there no way to change these type of universal settings, without learning the LaTeX commands to modify Document classes? Related point: I have hundreds of fonts installed under Windows, but I can't see them in any of the LyX menus. How do I give LyX access to them? (I'm using MiKTeX - is there a command I need to run to have it load all of my Windows fonts?).
