Thanks for your quick reply. I tried fully specifying the file name in the
dpfpages dialogue box, but I get the same error message. I exported the lyx
document to latex(pdflatex) and I looked at the \includepdf{} command. I see:
\includepdf[pages=-]{0_home_mateo_work_article}
which does not work because there is no file by this name.
Any more suggestions?
Should I regard this as a bug in v. 1.6.7 that is known about and therefore I
shouldn't worry about filing a bug report?
