RE: Garamond in LyX?
Piero, If you have access to open type or true type fonts, you might consider using XeLaTeX and fontspec. I've had better success going this route than trying to install Garamond by hand (for some reason the Ubuntu packages just don't seem to work well for me.)

Hello, Anyone succeeded in installing and using URW Garamond or any other Garamond fonts in LyX? I found this page http://gael-varoquaux.info/computers/garamond/index.html whose examples works perfectly without any installation using TexWorks, but have no idea on how to install it on MikTeX or having it working under LyX 1.6.5 The garamond package docs seems a bit confusing, referring to files which actually don't exist and so on... Any idea? I'm Windows MikTeX user. Thanks! Piero
