I started using LaTeX to write engineering lab reports in 2010 and have been using it ever since.

comment How to create a random math problem in LaTeX?
I haven't looked through this solution thoroughly to see if this would solve your problem with expressing decimal numbers as rational fractions, but Matlab has a rat function that might help here; however, it also might make for messy fractions when the answer is better-expressed as an approximate decimal number.

comment How do I make the minus symbol less heavy (or plus more so)
Would \ensuremath be useful in the definitions for \minus and \plus?

comment poor font quality when exporting to pdf
I suppose that is a possibility. However, in LyX's font selection menu fonts that are not installed have a "(not installed)" appended after the name of the font in the menu. As soon as the OP (or whoever) tries to change the font to Latin Modern Roman they will find out whether or not the font is installed.
