So did you follow Paul Rubin's final suggestion through? http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users%40lists.lyx.org/msg40178.html You need to have converters defined for each step of the process LaTeX -> DVI DVI -> Postscript PostScript -> PDF What does your Edit->Preferences dialog have to say about their existence? The relevant entries in *my* lyxrc.defaults file are: \converter latex dvi "latex $$i" "latex" \converter dvi ps "dvips -o $$o $$i" "" \converter ps pdf "ps2pdf13 $$i" "" This file is autogenerated by your $PREFIX/share/lyx/configure script. It probes your system to find out what you have installed. So, either install them and run Edit->Reconfigure or fool LyX by adding them to your $HOME/.lyx/preferences file. -- Angus
