How is this not fixed yet? I just got a new computer and I was
frustrated by my graphics winding up with poor quality until I realized
that epstopdf wasn't loaded. I have no idea what LyX was using by
default, but high quality graphics is an important reason to use LyX and
LaTeX!

One more thing, if the above doesn't seem to fix your problems in

In addition to installing epstopdf, you need to run Tools-Reconfigure,
then restart.
You will now have an entry for EPS-PDF(ps2pdf) under
Tools-Preferences-File Handling-Converts. The Converter should be
something like:
epstopdf --outfile=$$o $$i
Now create a new converter definition by
I had more trouble with eps images in the pdflatex backend, and that is
despite using epstopdf. So I think there is more to this bug than meets
the eye. It is probably an upstream issue with LyX 1.6.

Probably reporting it to upstream (Debian) would help getting this
into Ubuntu.
I checked Debian sid / unstable, and lyx does pull in epstopdf. So I
think this bug does not apply to Debian. This is why:
[code]
$ aptitude why texlive-extra-utils
i lyx Recommends

I have just been bitten by this bug, and I think it deserves more
attention. I would argue that this should be fixed, and installing lyx
should pull in epstopdf automatically (require it).
The reason is simple: EPS is the standard format for including graphics,
PDF is the standard output format

I am using Lyx 1.5.5 in Ubuntu (Linux 2.6.24-22-generic #1 SMP Mon Nov
24 18:32:42 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux).
I am finding the problem using epstopdf even after I have added the required
comments in Preferences/Converter.
Here is the screenshot of the converter declaration.

Hey !!!
I just fixed it.
Here is the thing I did after a lot of googling !!!
1. open .lyx directory under your home.
2. Oen the file preferences (in any editor)
3. Modify / Add these few lines : (in converters section - virtually anywhere )

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since
this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work,
I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here.
Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!
** Changed in: lyx (Ubuntu)
Side note: The windows installer for LyX installs epstopdf (right, not eps2pdf
or something else) by default along with the miktex LaTeX distribution.
It also sets the required converter rule automaticall (it's equivalent to what
wvengen said, but LyX-win just does it like this):
EPS - PDF
** Summary changed:
- lyx should depend on EpsToPdf
