Anders,

That is the configuration that I have — I have Inkscape installed, and this is 
the File Converter that is being used for SVG and SVGZ files.  I ran Lyx in 
debug mode and I could see that there was some sort of a failure surrounding 
using Inkscape as the converter.  As I understand it, Inkscape is installed as 
part of the Lyx installation, so I assumed that it is using its own local copy.

Is there an alternative way to set this up so that another render engine is 
used that works?

Thanks is advance for any advice.

Regards,

Bob
