Sorry, sorry...I am recovering from a party, you know... :-)

Of course, I meant EPDF. I was happy to see that I had it right in my description in

That's easy, if you use convert and eps2png. I use for this purpose my addd script 
(for ADD Density), which is included in my lyxtox package:

http://www.karakas-online.de/mySGML/addd

The addd script not only converts, but also does this "add density" thing, so the 
images are not only of the right format (EPDF) and have the right ending (PDF), but 
also have the "right density" too - OMG what a mess!

You know what I do with images?

First I try to convert whatever format I have to PNG, say myimage.png. Then I call my 
addd script as

addd myimage

(whithout ending!)

This creates the right PNG, EPS and PDF (actually EPDF) versions.

Then I type

convert myimage.png myimage.bmp

and I get my BMP version too. I put all these in my images directory from where my 
stylesheets will get them later, during document "rendering".

Does LyX really do it so, also for image file formats? I apologize. BTW, that was the 
most polite RTFM I ever got. :-)
