Hi:
I have searched the mail archives to the best of my ability and can find no solutions to the following problem:
I open the LyX Users Guide in LyX and I try to view the section regarding figures (4.3.1 I thiink). But I only see a blank box. If I click on the figure box I can view the full screen version of the figure in GSView 4.2 (which opens automatically). But I do get a document structure conversion warning in GSView before the figure comes up.
If I try to view the DVI version of this file I get the several errors:
An error window pops up stating "initialize_gs/RegOpenKeyEx can't be found"
In the LaTeX? Log file window:
----snip----
pathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 600 --mag 1+0/600 --dpi 600 msam10 gsftopk(k) version 1.19.2
Can't locate Ghostscript ! Exiting ...
mktexpk: Running gsftopk msam10 600 command gsftopk msam10 600 return 1 mktexpk:
warning: can't open log file msam10.log. mktexpk: `gsftopk msam10 600' failed. kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log.
----snip----
Eventually the dvi version of the Users Guide shows up. But when I go to the section with the figures (p. 73-74), the same initialize_gs error window pops up and also another error message about not being able to find gsdll32.dll appears
After this the WinDVI program usually crashes and the LyX menu bar becomes unresponsive.
Here is my config. info:
OS: WinXP HomeEd v.2002
LaTeX 2001/06/01
LyX v.1.1.6fix4
GSView 4.2 (I found gsdll32.dll in the bin folder )
