Hi Herbert - Wow - talk about fast replies.
I have attached one of the epsi files to this email (*not* in this newsgroup posting - I have sent a separate email directly). I think, though, that the problem might be with "convert". When running it from the command line I can re-create the lyx console errors: >convert pendula.epsi pendula.png convert: Unable to open file (./magicI4WIDx) [No such file or directory]. convert: Missing an image file name. FWIW, the epsi figures were generated from ps. I use OpenOffice to draw most of my figures, which I then print to a ps file. The problem is that the ps file has a bounding box that encompasses the *whole* page. To solve this, I run the ps files through `pstill' which converts them to a nicely bounded eps file. Then, I use `ps2epsi' to generate the final epsi. These epsi files do render properly in konqueror's file preview, btw. - R
