That was because the file I posted on my site was the original PS file - not EPS. > 2. The commands > > << > /PageSize [595 841] > /ImagingBBox null > >> setpagedevice Probably same remark as above. I didn't remove them from the EPS files. ----- Anyway, I've finally been able to get it done! I didn't have dvipdfm, so I installed it (as pdflatex does not treat the EPSs correctly). Several other items weren't installed either. I'll do a few tests in the next days, and post a writeup of the results. Thanks, Georg! John BTW: Throughout this experience I was confused (and amazed) by the (lack of-) beginner's documentation for LyX. Most docs are based on previous knowledge of TeX/LaTeX or other stuff. Configuration of the LyX converters and viewers is not entirely intuitive... Is there some effort on the way for a more complete installation/configuration manual?
