Hi there,
I had similar problems, but I partially
solved them by using LyX-140pre. This one
recognizes the pdflatex. I tried also to install
back the 2004 latex, but something went wrong and
I couldn't use LyX until I downloaded the 140pre.
Cheers,
Jordi
Hi i had the same problem too. And it seemed to me
that this is because of the 2005 latex install
from the i installer it seems broke.
Because in this install latex can't find the
path of the converted pictures in in the lyx
temp
directory. It seems that pdflatex of the 2005
version could not handle the relative paths
lyx is using.
Going back to a latex 2004 i installer fixed this problem for me.
Hello list,
I recently picked up LyX after getting some
warm recommendations from a few friends. I'm
using a PowerBook with Mac OS X 10.4.3.
Thus, I picked up the i-Installer distribution
at http://ii2.sourceforge.net/tex-index.html,
which seems to be the most popular for my
platform, and followed install instructions
from
http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/installing.html.
I selected the 2005 TeX distribution
(i-Installer offers "2003", "2004" and "2005",
with 2005 being the default).
Then, I grabbed a copy of LyX 1.3.6 for Mac OS
X, copied the program to my Applications
folder, and ran the install script. So far, so
good. But from there, it goes a little bit
wrong.
Indeed, I cannot seem to include any graphics
(images) in my documents. Or rather, documents
that are typeset perfectly fine on Linux won't
hear a thing on my computer. However, this
only occurs when I use the pdflatex, DVI or
dvipdfm options of the View menu. For a reason
I cannot explain, the "ps to pdf" option works
just fine.
Graphics are included by adding a float:figure
element and including within that an ERT
block, with the following commands
\center{\includegraphics[scale=0.9,angle=0]{graphics/myimage.pdf
or myimage.png}}
graphics is a folder that sits next to the main lyx file.
The main document author (this is part of a team project) also added
\usepackage{graphicx}
to the document preamble.
The errors I get seem to be typical of EPS
files with no bounding boxes, but why the heck
does it happen with PDFs and PNG files as
well, when those very same files work
perfectly fine on Linux... An example error:
LaTeX Error: Cannot determine size of graphic
in /Users/bahamut/Documents/Sch
...cale=0.9,angle=0]{graphics/Processus.pdf}
}
Try typing <return> to proceed.
If that doesn't work, type X <return> to quit.
In addition to that, if I export the document
to latex, and typeset the document from say
TeXShop, everything works fine (as far as
images go, some other things get lost like
cross-references, which makes this option
unpractical).
I'm basically at a standstill now. I've done
my share of research on the web and came up
with nothing. Maybe I'm overreacting (since ps
to pdf does work), but the issue still annoys
me and I'd like to see it resolved (or at
least understand what's causing it).
Any assistance will be appreciated.
Regards,
Jean-Francois Roy
