Hi,
I'm trying to import a SWP portable LaTeX file into LyX1.5.2 (just
downloaded few days ago - web-based installer, WinXP). I keep getting the
same resulting error message (pop-up):
LyX: Document Format Failure
C:\Documents and Settings...\Local Settings\Temp\lyx_tempdirXXX\XXX ended

Hey Frank,
Was the XXX file in the error message your SWP file, the intermediate
file you found, or the final .lyx file?
There are some known instances of tex2lyx failing, and SWP lards up its
portable files with lots of SWP-specific macros.
Hi again,
Duh, I should have noticed earlier ... the .lyx file saved by the LyX GUI
(i.e., into my working directory, not the temporary directory) is *also* a
complete end-to-end parse of my .tex file (i.e., has my trailing bibtex
invocation, \end_document, etc). I did a diff between this
Another obvious thing I should now mention is that, if I Open the saved .lyx
file (the one saved earlier by LyX into my working directory) into a new LyX
session, then the same LyX:Document Format Failure popup error occurs.
So the problem is likely well past the tex2lyx stage?
Hi Anyone,
This is really bizarre, but progress nonetheless.
I'm finding that if I merely add the
trim=0.00in 0.00in 0.000in 0.00in,
directive into the \includegraphics[
section, things work out! That is, at/near the point in my .tex file where I
*don't* do this, is where

No, I believe it is tex2lyx. SWP uses the natheight and natwidth
options for \includegraphics, and tex2lyx seems to choke on them.
Following a hint in the graphicx documentation, if you change
natheight=6in, natwidth=8in to bb=0 0 6 8 (in the SWP .tex file),
