Jürgen,
thanks for the hints! I decided to use the pdfpages package, but the success so
far is just minor:
pdfpages cannot be used for DVI output -- is that right? View/DVI produces an
error "Package pdfpages error: You produce DVI output but PDF output" ... I
think the message should go on... giving the advice "Set output to PDF. (use:
\pdfoutput = 1)". I put this in my preamble ("\pdfoutput = 1"), but it did not
help.
For this reason, I tried to produce a PDF via View/PDF (pdflatex), but this
does not work eiter: "LyX: cannot view file. No information for viewing PDF
(pdflatex)". I added the missing viewer to the PDF (pdflatex) entry under
Tools/Preferences/File formats. This starts the viewer (kpdf) after the PDF was
created, but the file seems to be corrupted ("Could not open file ...").
pdftotext tells me:
Error (0): PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table...
Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary
Error: Couldn't read xref table
The solution I would best prefer would allow me to use latex instead of
pdflatex, enabling me to continue using all the eps images I have already in
the doc. (As far as I understood from the recent discussion pdflatex does not
support eps) -- Is this possible?
Thanks again & looking forward to new advices ;)
Cz.
