Forgive my ignorance, how can I convert my xymatrix to .eps?
I found the following way:
1.for each xymatrix create a separate lyx file.
2. export each file to .tex
3. run latex fileName
4. run dvips -E -o fileName.eps fileName.dvi
I found this tedious if I have 10 xymatrix figures, is there another/simpler
way?
Also after inserting the figures, each figure takes the whole page for
displaying, how can I crop the figure?
Thank you for your patience,

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply. You are right that it can be tedious, but you
could set up a script to automate it. You can use only one LyX file, in
fact, by using the latex package called preview. Here's how:
In your document preamble:
\usepackage[active,pdftex,tightpage]{preview}
\PreviewMacro[!]{\xymatrix}
Then when you export to pdf, you get each xymatrix figure on its own
page. Then use pdftk to extract each page (burst the pdf).
