pdf images to large-pdflatex
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. Bob Lounsbury

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.) /Paul

I also don't get any image output with View-PDF (dvipdfm), another reason why I wanted pdflatex to work. Thanks again. Bob Lounsbury
