What route are you taking to generate the pdf? Are you going * lyx->latex-(latex)->dvi-(dvips)->ps-(ps2pdf)->pdf which requires that the png image is converted to eps format, or are you using the route * lyx->latex-(pdflatex)->pdf which can use the png file as-is? If you are converting the image to eps format, what are you using to perform the conversion? I expect that you are using the default set of converters? Specifically, that you use ImageMagick's 'convert' program to transform png->eps. Does this work from the command line $ convert your_file.png EPS:your_file.eps Regards, Angus
