How to set up LyX under Windows to use it for Georgian

Installation

1. Install LyX for Windows
2. Install the DejaVu fonts by installing all *.ttf files in this ZIP file to Windows.

Testing the Installation

1. Run LyX and press Ctrl+N to open a new document. Write a few words in English, and press Ctrl+R.
   A PDF viewer program should be opened; check that it displays the text correctly.
   
2. Open another document and call the menu Document → Settings.
   1. Select there in the Language section "Georgian"
   2. Select there in the Fonts section the option "use non-TeX fonts", choose as roman font "DejaVu Serif", as sans-serif font "DejaVu Sans" and as typewriter font "DejaVu Sans Mono"
   3. Press OK to close the document settings and type in a few words. In the document settings Press Ctrl+R and check the output.

Possible problems

• If you do not see Georgian characters in LyX, check in the LyX preferences that the screen fonts support Georgian.
• If you do not see Georgian characters in the PDF output, check that the fonts you selected in the document settings support Georgian characters.
