On my XP box, I get garbage. Output at console from lyx: convert.exe: unable to open image `tgif:c:/gatzke/test.obj': Invalid argument. convert.exe: missing an image filename `ppm:c:/Documents and Settings/gatzke/Local Settings/Temp/lyx_tmpdir2724a03164/test2724a03164.ppm'. c:/Program Files/LyX142/Resources/scripts/convertDefault.sh ERROR Execution of "convert" failed. And when I try to convert an obj file to ppm: convert test.obj test.ppm convert: unable to open module file `/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.0.4/modules-Q16/coders/obj.la'. convert: missing an image filename `test.ppm'. Maybe it is due to me not reinstalling all the peripheral software with the new version update?
