Hello, I've been using Lyx for about 12 months, and think it's an absolutely brilliant piece of software. I am currently using version 1.3.1.
However, I have been having major difficulties with the quality of images in a document when exporting to DVI, PS or PDF. Images appear kind of "blocky", almost like they are at a low resolution. I have tried with various image formats, including JPEG, GIF, PNG and EPS. I have included the graphicx package, as I understood that this may be beneficial when using JPEGs, but it didn't seem to help. I have tried using different programs, such as dvips, pdflatex, and tex2pdf, but they all produce poor output. I am guessing that these programs are not the problem, because the DVI itself is poor quality, so I am thinking it might be a Latex issue? I am not very knowledgable when it comes to Latex so I can't be sure. Any help on this issues is much appreciated. I'm starting a thesis in a few weeks, and would hate to have to use a normal word processor, but if I can't get my images and charts etc to look acceptable I may have no choice. Regards, Alistair
