Hi All;
This is all very strange.
I have two different setups at home and both work without errors. Both on Windows XP and LyX 1.3.3
I have done nothing to any of the converters whatsoever.
However, I have ammended the configure script to pick up the native windows version of gs. Perhaps not the answer but mentioned here for completness.
***snip***
# Search for a Postscript interpreter echo $ac_n "checking for a Postscript interpreter""... $ac_c" echo "$ac_t""(gswin32)" prog= for ac_prog in gswin32 do
***end snip***
(The full ammended configure script can be found on the windows wiki page.)
These are the setups which I have working:
Setup 1. Image magick 5.5.7 and Ghostscript 8.00
Setup 2. Image magick 5.5.7 and Ghostscript 8.14
These were installed in the now tried and tested order, which is again given on the wiki page.
Now I have tried the newer versions of image magick (6.0.0+), but as another past thread, I have reverted back to 5.5.7
I'm using a complete odd ball set of 50+ image files in my thesis - eps, jpg, bmp and png without so much as a stutter - All work when exported to pdflatex from the menu bar and show up as I intended. Am I just lucky then?
One thing is for certian though and that is both C:\im\ImageMagick-5.5.7-Q16 and C:\gs\gs8.00\bin (or gs8.14) are in my system PATH (Image Magick has to be there before the windows stuff and any other progs running a convert.exe). I have had to add the ghostscript one myself.
