This has been broken for me for some time (before 2.4 and still there) and I just turned math preview off. You say "works with xelatex" and not with lualatex.

Whether "use non-tex fonts" is checked or not (it might be worse one way or another, but it's not good either way). I now use exclusively (for normal purposes): * TeX Gyre Schola for normal serif fonts. * TeX Gyre Heros for normal sans-serif fonts. * TeX Gyre Cursor for monospaced fonts. These fonts are readable, at a glance, on paper or on screen. They look good, at least to me. All you do is install them from CTAN, check "use non-tex fonts", and compile with LuaTeX and LuaLaTeX. Once in a while I use Ubuntu Condensed when needing condensed fonts. Note that if it's to be read exclusively on a screen (HTML or ePub), I don't specify fonts, so that the user's preferences rule.

Herbert
Looks like if I export to pdflatex and run pdflatex it works!
But if I export to lualatex and run lualatex the asterisks are
misplaced. Any idea of what is the cause?
It is a bug in IEEEtran which is _not_ configured to run with lualatex.
However, the export from LyX to lualatex is wrong if you have the
LyX-document configured for pdflatex.
For lualatex use this preamble in _LyX_
\usepackage{flushend}
\usepackage{kpfonts-otf}
\DeclareRobustCommand*\IEEEauthorrefmark[1]{\ensuremath{{}^{\ifcase#1\or
*\or \dagger\or \ddagger\or%
\mathsection\or \mathparagraph\or \|\or **\or \dagger\dagger
\or \ddagger\ddagger \else\expandafter\romannumeral#1\fi}}}
and also enable the button for "Use non TeX fonts (lualatex/xelatex)

Try the Palatino font with \usepackage{mathpazo}. That’s an attractive, classic

And that’s why they don’t look good. You need to choose one

is that there might not be a corresponding math font. One that
does have a math font and that looks quite nice is Cambria. If
you are using MacOS or Windows you should have it on your
machine if you’ve installed Office 365 or a standalone of any
of the usual Microsoft applications. To get the corresponding
math font once you’ve selected Cambria from the drop-down, add
the following to the preamble:
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\setmathfont{Cambria Math}
If you’re using Linux, there are instructions to be found on
the interwebs for installing the Microsoft fonts Cambria,
Calibri, and Consolas. They are extracted from the old
PowerPoint Viewer, which Microsoft released for free and hence
(so I recall gathering from discussions in various forums) can
be extracted and used legally.
Is there a recommended alternative set of fonts?
For TeX fonts, I really like New PX

I just tried out the New PX alternative. It looks good except for
one strange problem. In the top of the paper is author name and
authormark. Authormark (1 author) will be an asterisk. With CM
the asterisk is in the normal position, but with New PX the
asterisk is about the middle of the text height, not in a
superscript position. Since this is right at the top of the paper
and glaringly obvious I don't think I can use it.

The Abstract should be bold, but in Cambria it does not seem to be bold.

And that’s why they don’t look good. You need to choose one from the drop-down
list. The problem with using non-TeX fonts is that there might not be a
corresponding math font. One that does have a math font and that looks quite
nice is Cambria. If you are using MacOS or Windows you should have it on your
machine if you’ve installed Office 365 or a standalone of any of the usual
Microsoft applications. To get the corresponding math font once you’ve selected
Cambria from the drop-down, add the following to the preamble:
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\setmathfont{Cambria Math}
If you’re using Linux, there are instructions to be found on the interwebs for
installing the Microsoft fonts Cambria, Calibri, and Consolas. They are
extracted from the old PowerPoint Viewer, which Microsoft released for free and
hence (so I recall gathering from discussions in various forums) can be
extracted and used legally.
> Is there a recommended alternative set of fonts?
For TeX fonts, I really like New PX <https://tug.org/FontCatalogue/newpx/>, a
descendent of Palatino with a very nice math font. Add the following to your
preamble (and select “Default” from the drop-down font list):
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{newpxtext,newpxmath}
Vastly superior aesthetically to the long outdated (but still, sadly, oft-used)
Computer Modern default.

LyX, Non-TeX-Fonts and export with pandoc
Dear readers of this list,
I am referring to LyX 2.3.7 on Ubuntu 22.04 and pandoc 2.9.2.1:
I am able to export documents from LyX to docx or odt by means of
pandoc when I use TeX-Fonts (that is, the box "Do not use TeX-Fonts
(via XeteX or LuaTeX)" is *not* checked).
But when I check that box and want to use Non-TeX-Fonts, the export
option to docx or odt via pandoc disappears.
However, on the command line I can export the following latex-file by
means of pandoc to docx, eg.
pandoc -s -f latex -o Test_Nicht-TeX-Font_pandoc.docx -t docx
Test_Nicht-TeX-Font_pandoc.tex
%% Test_Nicht-TeX-Font_pandoc.tex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Liberation Serif}
\begin{document}
Dieses Dokument benutzt einen "Nicht-TeX-Font" im Sinne von
LyX.
\end{document}
Is it possible to export LyX-documents with non-TeX-fonts by means of
pandoc? If yes, what can I do to convince LyX?
Thanks for helpful hints in advance
Tobias

Fontforge, in some special cases also inkscape. Inkscape has some advantaages. The first curves of the O, D, B, P, d, p or o have all been the same, sometimes scaled or flipped.

Re: Fonts for LyX
Thanks. The old style numbers appear somewhat strange at first glance,
i agree. I copied them from the original Didot fonts from about 1810. I
also stumbled over the numbers at the beginning, but only at the
beginning. The four is quite big, for example.
There are also parallel (default) and mono spaced numbers. You can
switch the style by inserting a tex-box:
\addfontfeatures{Numbers={Lining, Monospaced}}
\addfontfeatures{Numbers={OldStyle}}
That's also the reason I use realscripts, because footnote numbers in
"old style" look strange. But for usual text I'm quite happy with the
old style numbers (e. g. page 16). They do not stand out at all, while
normal numerals look like a block of capital letters. Anyway, the fonts
are hardly made for long series of numbers. There are much better ones.
My plan was to have a legible font (print and pdf), but not a variant of
Bembo, Garamond or Times, for example, because TexLive has really good
fonts of that kind.

Hello all, this is not really a central Lyx topic, but I hope I'll be forgiven. I have started designing a font. As I have been working with Lyx for over 20 years, and the font should primarily work well with LyX (XeTeX), be usable without problems. Other uses don't interest me so much. At the following link you can find the font and a long PDF document created with LyX, which practically only uses the package realscripts for the preamble. https://www.fatto.de/wiki/doku.php/playground:font Therefore my question: Is anyone interested in supporting me, i.e. finding errors, making suggestions for improvement, etc.? -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

EBGaramond listed as "Not installed" ("Don't use TeX fonts" is checked)
Hello fellow LyX users,
I installed EBGaramond via TexLive's tlmgr. I also have old documents
(previous installs), which use that font, and they compile fine
(correct font, looks great).
However, in the Document settings, EBGaramond is shown as "Not
installed." In new docs, I can't select it. luaotfload-tool confirms
EBGaramond is indeed installed. Lyx does show me tons of other Opentype
fonts, but not EBGaramond. Of course, I reconfigured Lyx and restarted
after installing the font.
If I uncheck "Don't use TeX fonts," it lists "URW Garamond," but also
as "Not installed."
Latex/LuaTex apparently is not the issue, as the document preamble
(generated by Lyx) contains "\setmainfont[Ligatures=TeX]{EB Garamond},"
and it compiles fine.
I used to be able previously to select EBGaramond, but that was a
different Linux distro, and I installed that font from the distro's
repos. Now, I installed it from CTAN servers, as my current distro does
not have it.
I'm using TexLive 2022. Admittedly, I'm clueless about the world of
fonts, and I may be confused by something.
How can I fix Lyx so it lets me select my preferred font?
(I'm also not a subscriber to lyx-users currently, if that information
is necessary.)
Best regards to all,
Christian

Hi all, You probably know this already, but in January 2023 Adobe software stopped supporting Type1 fonts. This means that any documents containing Type1 fonts cannot be accurately depicted on the latest Adobe software. This pretty much means Type1 fonts shouldn't be used. Now I'll need to audit all my books, some of which were written in the 20th century, to make sure they don't use Type1 fonts, and if they do, change to the closest possible Opentype or Truetype fonts.

I don't think this is a plain tex versus pdftex/pdflatex issue. I took a
closer look at the file. In the preamble, it defines a custom
environment named "roastlog" which includes some goofy (to me) font
specifications ("Museo Slab 300 Italic"??). The \put commands in the
body of the LyX doc are between \begin and \end commands for that
environment, not begin/end document.
I've attached a LyX file in which I switched the fonts to defaults and,
in the preamble, commented out the load of the xunicode package (because
I'm using pdflatex and not xetex), all the setromanfont commands (you
can try uncommenting them and replacing Museo whatever with some fonts
you do have) and the graphics includes (because I don't have the graphic
files). Your guess is better than mine as to why weird fonts are being
used, but in your shoes I would be tempted to compile and print it
(using default fonts) and then abandon the .tex file and, starting from
scratch, create a LyX file that produces the same general output with
fonts you like (meaning more stuff in the document body and no macros in
the preamble).
Lotsa luck!

Indeed, the current version produces

{\Huge x\textsuperscript{y}}{\Huge\par}
(though the "{\Huge\par}" seems a bit superfluous to me in both versions).

When I use metropolis, I pair it with Calibri, a Windows system font. My
needs are very simple and I don't need a specific math font. I find that
Calibri is pleasant when projected on a screen and it has a nice Italic
for a sans-serif font. Because it is a Windows font, I compile my

Re: Libertinus and AnonymousPro fonts
Wolfgang, It is being developed, I think not even in beta. The latest (for the Mac) is LyX 2.3.6.2 (2021-01-07) LyX can export into lower versions but it's better to have the same version with all collborators. If you have homebrew it'll update itself by itself :-)-O. Otherwise, read this newsgroup and look for the announcement. Perhaps even wait a week or two after the announcement in case of a short term update being required. Once it's out just install it on top of 2.3.6(*). It is not a good idea to have two different versions as 2.3.6 can't read 2.4 files only the other way round. el On 2021-07-14 15:50 , Wolfgang Engelmann wrote: Lyx2.4 knows libertinus BTW.

And it can be changed. Isn't there an easier way to do this? Isn't there a way to globally change section and sub-section font size? Look at Document -> Settings -> Fonts. You can change almost everything, including the default family and size. The KOMA-script classes use sans serif fonts for all headings so you can fiddle with all these to get what you want. For sans serif and typewriter there are widgets to set the size separate from that of the body text. Perhaps changing the default family and size to specific values will allow you to change the size of the sans serif headings, too. (The sizes are greyed out on my documents because I use the default family, size, and encoding.)

Weight Options to the Noto Fonts
Hi,
I am conducting a serious love affair with the Noto fonts which we can
now select in the LyX Settings -> Fonts dialog.

I would normally do in the Preamble with something like
\makeatletter
\if@landscape
\usepackage[medium]{noto}
\else
\usepackage{noto}
\makeatother
This works but defeats the purpose and my sporting ambition.
I tried
\PassOptionsToPackage{thin}{noto}
which doesn't work, because this would have to come before the
\begin{document}, anyway.
Any ideas? If it's in the manual a pointer would be appreciated.
And I unashamedly do not apologize for crossposting :-)-O

It's easy enough to make sure that's installed on the system. Cheers!

If you are willing to use XeTeX instead of plain LaTeX, setting up a new font-family that uses an Unicode Blackletter typeface such as UniFraktur(1) is really easy.

Gothic style fonts in LyX/MikTeX
Hello, For a project, I wanted to use an old-English/Germanic style font. I found some in yfonts, but it's tricky to install/setup with MikTeX (not automatic) because it requires a local tex install. There are instructions at https://wiki.lyx.org/Tips/InstallType1Fonts and also on StackOverflow for Type1 installs. Not impossible, but less easy to reproduce between my PC at home and work. Is there a gothic-like font that will work well with LyX/MikTeX automagically?
How to populate ~/.texlive2018/texmf-var/fonts

Shortcuts for fonts / OSX
Hello, I could not find out, how the shortcuts in LyX 2.2.3 for the fonts on OSX 10.12.5 are working. For example, the shortcut for »font-roman« is ^Z R. I am not sure, whether the first sign stands for the control-key, but nonetheless I have tried many possibilities, which all did not work, also for the »Z« and the »R«. Does this mean I should first enter shift+z and then shift+r? In this case it would not work. Sorry if this is obvious… Thanks Jess
Re: lyx display screen math fonts
I use Windows 10 (64 bit). I reinstalled the ttf fonts of lyx, which worked for me. I did not have this problem in my previous laptop with Windows 7. Eren > On 26 Tem 2017, at 21:12, Paul A.

When I type in some fonts lyx display screen shows different fonts. For example, the Greek letter "Pi" shows up as Q. Though, the font shows up correctly when I compile the file. I would be grateful if you could help me. Eren

Hi, With texlive 2017 containing the stix two fonts, will they be one of the font choices readily available in LyX 2.3? Regards Frank Salter
