Finally I solved this problem when trying to fix another problem related to SVG graphics.
The problem is related to the temporal path used by Lyx. I am usign Lyx in spanish, where the temp path by default has characters not supported by Lyx, as "ConfiguraciĆ³n Local" (local configuration). I think this should be handled in future releases to avoid changing the path to a simpler place, like c:\temp. As I told before, the same problem occurs when Lyx does the internal conversions of graphics to PNG, for example from SVG. The temporal path in a language different than english probably generates troubles. This is also fixed by changing the temp folder. Regards, Mariano.
