Hello,

I wonder if imagemagick has to be installed as a part of cygwin or can I use the native windows imagemagick when I want use the native qt lyx 1.3.2 on windows XP?

I tried installing a couple of months ago and couldn't get it to work (the image conversion) I debugged and was also in contact with Ruurd Reitsma directly. No solution back then.

I tried tonight again and same error.

Was the problem that I need the cygwin version of imagemagick?.

For my lyx 1.3.1 under cygwin I am using the native windows version of imagemagick. One would think it would work with the native qt version of Lyx as well then.

What does the debug output tell you? (lyx -dbg graphics)

What happens if you define a converter explicitly. Eg

\converter "eps" "png" "my_ps2png $$i $$o" ""
\converter "eps" "ppm" "my_ps2ppm $$i $$o" ""
\converter "png" "eps" "convert PNG:$$i EPS:$$o" ""



Sorry. I'm an idiot. "convert.exe" on my machine is the Windows executable
that turns a DOS filesystem into an NTFS filesystem.

Turns out that I had not compiled and installed ImageMagick on that
laptop.

I compiled and installed the latest ImageMagick under Cygwin and now
it works.
