Hello,
Using pdflatex under 1.3.7 and 1.4.3 on a Mac and 1.3.7 on XP, a
jpeg picture is displayed much larger than using ps2pdf, dvipdfm,
or dvi converters under the LyX->View dialog. Any ideas? I
wouldn't mind using a different converter, but on my five year old
iBook pdflatex has the fastest conversion (by about 1min or more)
to a pdf document. Everything is installed under Fink, and the
pdflatex conversion command under ~Preferences->Converters->Latex
to PDF is 'pdflatex $$i'. Thanks.

How are you scaling the image? I get consistent results across
View->DVI, View->PDF (pdflatex) and View->PDF (ps2pdf) if I scale
based on absolute units or text%; adventures occur if I scale using
scale%. (Curiously, I don't get any image output if I use View->PDF
(dvipdfm) or export to PDF (dvipdfm) -- no JPG, no PNG, not even
EPS. Just appropriately sized blank spaces in the file.)

Sure enough, I was using scale% and text% gives consistent results.
Thanks.
I also don't get any image output with View->PDF (dvipdfm), another
reason why I wanted pdflatex to work.
Thanks again.
