Hi
I have Word documents with embedded emf images that I would like to
insert in LyX documents. If I click on one in Word, copy and then
attempt to paste into Lyx a dialogue box comes up to save the image as
an emf file. Saving it results in a box in the LyX window which says,
for example,
pasted12.emf
Error loading file into memory
If I then try to LaTeX the document pdftex fails with the message
below at the end of the log:
[1{C:/ProgramData/MiKTeX/2.9/pdftex/config/pdftex.map}
] [2] [3] [4] [5]
!pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file

lib
png: internal error
==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
Similarly, if I do Insert>Graphics I get the same errors.
The resulting emf file loads perfectly into Paint for example.
Am I missing the metafile2eps converter or something else? I am using
LyX 2.0.6 on Windows 7 (64 bit).
Thanks in advance for any help

In Tools>Preferences>File Handling>Converters "Enhanced Metafile -> EPS"
is in the list.
