Hello,
using LyX 1.4.4-1 small installer for Windows on two different boxes (W2k and
XP, running on very different hardware):
When selecting DVI output and viewing embedded .EPS graphic files, YAP asks to
temporarily change to the DVIPS rendering method. Sadly, in such DVIPS rendered
.EPS graphics spurious but reproducible errors show up in YAP, which just look
like a missing needle in a matrix printer output would do.
Since generating just postscript output to printer or generating PDF to file
output doesn´t show such rendering errors, the problem might just be in YAP or
in a converter used for/by YAP.
I didn´t check with recent LyX V1.4.3-x yet, because I would have to reinstall
it. If of high interest to solve the problem, I could downgrade one machine to
LyX 1.4.3-x and report back.
I get the same messages from Yap using LyX 1.4.3-4 and 1.4.3-5.
Eventually, I surrendered and set Yap to use DVIPS by default. Since I
use Yap only for previewing, not for final output, small defects in the
display of images are tolerable.
