I use the fig2ps script (available on sourceforge) to convert xfig to
eps, and then use the eps file in LyX. My makefile has entry:
%.eps : %.fig
@echo "Making $@ from $<"
@fig2ps --forcespecial --add=epsfig --input=../../2120/notes/
2120head.tex --bbox=dvips --eps $<
rm *.tmp.*
which I use to convert from .fig to .eps files. This usually gives
pleasing results.

Hello everybody,
I am not sure whether this forum is the right adress for my
question, but I will give it a try anyway.
I have created a number of images using Xfig, which all have labels/
text in them.
Unfortunately the text does not come out very well and I would also
like to include some math symbols, which Xfig cannot do anyway.
Therefore I would now like to edit the latex files of the images,
which I exported in Xfig.
The only problem is that when I try to convert the edited latex
file in LyX back to a pdf or postscript, I get lots of errors
saying things like 'undefined sequence' ...
I guess the problme is that I am missing some package, but I do not
really know which one.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Should say that I am a beginner.
Thank you.
Best Wishes,
Philipp
