Sorry, Jean-Pierre, but I think that we're talking at cross purposes.

I interpreted your original mail as saying that the dvi file showed 
your guillemets as ¡¡quoted¿¿. I therefore ran your tex file through 
my latex compiler and found that the resulting dvi file contained 
guillemets as expected. My conclusion? that my latex compiler is 
doing the right thing and your latex compiler is doing the wrong 
thing.

Does that now make sense?

What image file? We're talking about guillemets, no?
(Anyway, I'm unable to access my .lyx.org email till this evening, so 
have patience.)
