Hi,
For Grace and GIF files (those are the ones I've tested) I encounter an unusual behaviour, with respect to the given path of the graphics file. If the file-path is relative (not starting with a "/"), the View->DVI and View->Postscript end with an error. The LaTeX logfile says ---------------------------------------------------- [..] ! LaTeX Error: File `/tmp/lyx_tmpdir72145KSFP8O/lyx_tmpbuf0/cid_cia' not found. See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation. Type H <return> for immediate help. ... l.18 ...lyx_tmpdir72145KSFP8O/lyx_tmpbuf0/cid_cia} I could not locate the file with any of these extensions: .eps,.ps,.eps.gz,.ps.gz,.eps.Z [...] ---------------------------------------------------- Notice that the extension of the graphics file somehow has been lost; it only mentions "cid_cia", not something like "cid_cia.eps"! The lyx_tmpdir72145KSFP8O/lyx_tmpbuf0 directory has only newfile1.tex and newfile1.log. No other files at all! Insidethe tex file there are the following line: [...] \includegraphics{/tmp/lyx_tmpdir72329ebosPB/lyx_tmpbuf1/cid_cia} [...] I can solve the problem in LyX in two ways: 1) Make the file-path of the graphics file from root ("/..."). 2) I use the corresponding eps file instead. Apparently something fishy is going on here. Any ideas what? Regards, Rob.
