I meant a LyX doc. Anyway, yesterday I noticed that my .svg graphic pixellated when the resulting pdf was viewed at anything besides 100%. The text in the graphic (it was a diagram) was hard to read even though it was big enough. So I converted the svg to a .pdf and included the .pdf in the LyX diagram, and the resulting document .pdf looked good at any magnification. The following is my script for converting a dia diagram into a pdf suitable for incorporation into a LyX doc: #!/bin/bash dianame=$1 gname=`echo $dianame | sed -e "s/\..*$//"` pdfname=$gname.pdf echo Converting $dianame to $pdfname inkscape --export-embed-fonts --export-pdf=$pdfname $dianame acroread $pdfname SteveT Steve Litt Recession Relief Package http://www.recession-relief.US
