Sorry, but I don't understand what is going wrong here. For me it simply works. If you look into the temporary directory that LyX creates (/tmp/lyx_tmpdir...../lyx_tmpbuf0/), wht do you find there? There should be a file 0_Users_philippfleig_Documents_LyX_Documents_Lab_Figures_TestFig.pdftex, 0_Users_philippfleig_Documents_LyX_Documents_Lab_Figures_TestFig.fig and 0_Users_philippfleig_Documents_LyX_Documents_Lab_Figures_TestFig.eps. Do they exist? What does the LaTeX log file contain? Georg
