LyX doesn't let me select over 12 point fonts, how could I do that? "Seminar" can be used in Lyx ? That sounds interesting to me. And how do I bring it into lyx?

For enhanced the possibilities of pdflatex using transitions effects between pages and pauses I use ppower4 postprocessor (http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/support/ppower4/readme.html) and I have created a foiltex-based layout and a transitions.inc files in order to support the capabilities of ppower4. You can find one example, the layout, and the inc files at http://www.iit.upco.es/~oscar/download/Presentation.tgz and the resulting pdf file at http://www.iit.upco.es/~oscar/download/presentation.pdf In the tgz file you can also find a lyx2pdf script (BTW it would be nice to include a -pp4 option in Steffen Evers' lyx2pdf script ) to run all the stuff, you must execute: # lyx2pdf -pp4 presentation and that's all. It is presumed that ppower4, and a recent java distribution, are installed. You can see a more mathematical oriented pdf example at http://www.iit.upco.es/~oscar/download/seguimiento200900.pdf -- http://www.iit.upco.es/~oscar Yesterday I was a dog. Today I'm a dog.

I've recently created a presentation using pdfscreen and TeXPower. The result PDF file is viewed using Acrobat reader in full screen mode, and the result is like a powerpoint presentation (i.e. I didn't create transparencies). I've put a small example at http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~dekelts/lyx/pdfscreen.tar.gz It contains slightly modified version of pdfscreen.sty, and a pdfscreen.layout file. Note that the file can only be processed with pdflatex, so either use lyx 1.1.6cvs/1.1.6pre*, or manually export to latex and run pdflatex.

Yes, thanks, this is an acceptable solution althought page numbers are still very small (I don't need them anyway) and section headers seem to be no larger than before (but fortunately they are still little larger than the main text). (Strange. When I tried first to change only section header sizes in seminar class, LaTeX gave me just errors. But now it seems to work fine...) Someone had made a presentation with LyX, that I got from this list, but I can not find it from my disks... :(

Have you tried changing the character style? Check out: Layout->Character (or something like that). In the dialog that pops up, choose the size option, which ranges from "tiny" all the way up to "Huger". The applies to text that you have marked. Rob.
Presentation / large fonts
I need to do a presentation (transparencies etc) due Friday. Of course, I'd like very much to use LyX. First I'd like to hear comments, tips and maybe even have example presentations done with LyX. I first tried using "Slide" style but it didn't work at all (even if I should have it installed according to LyX). Then I tried the "Seminar" with much better results (though "Caption" still is not recognized by LaTeX). The problem with article class or some other normal class are too small fonts. LyX doesn't let me select over 12 point fonts, how could I do that?
