Hello Georg,
I am sorry for the very late reply, but I was away for the last few
days!
The file Test.lyx which I had sent to you was correct and also read
the file TestFig.fig, but for some reason LyX seems to change the
name of the file from TestFig.fig to LyX when I include it via
External Material. This can be fixed though, by saving Test.lyx
before including TestFig.fig.
Still when I do this and then run pdflatex, I get the error, "empty
output file was created" again. Also a message pops up saying
somthing like
"Latex Eror: File
'o_Users_philippfleig_Documents_LyX_Documents_Lab_Figures_TestFig.pdftex
_t"
and "(cannot \read from terminal in nonstop modes)"
Sorry for bothering you over such a long period of time with this
problem, but whatever I do it just does not work.
Thank you for your great help!
Philipp

Hello,
ok. Attached you find a sample .lyx + xfig file.
When I go to preferences in LyX there are a number of converters,
including some like FIG -> EPS, FIG -> PDFTEX and FIG -> PSTEX, which
I guess would be the relevant ones.
Yes, they are.
I read on http://www.xfig.org/
userman/latex_and_xfig.html something about the psfig package. Could
it be this, which I am missing?
No. Your test file does not include the figure. It includes a file
named ../../../LyX. If I change that to read TestFig.fig, and if I
save
TestFig.fig in the same directory as Test.lyx, then it works just fine
here.
