Hello,

I got rid of some of the problems with the image
processing my self:

Conclusion:
Image conversion/scaling of images works fine on win
XP as long as:

1) The .tex  and the image files are on the same
partition

2) one specifies relative paths i.e. without using the
drive letter in the  Latex include graphics command.

3) have a file extension in the include graphics
command.

There is a very peculiar thing when the full path
including drive letter is used in the \includegraphics
command, e.g.

\includegraphics[clip,scale=0.2]{c:/path_to_image/image.jpg}

When your image is a .jpg , and its not so large as to be prohibitive to view via the web, then you don't actually need to use \includegraphics . The \htmladdimg command, from html.sty , is often a better command to use. You can specify size and alignment for the way the picture is to be shown in your HTML pages, quite independently of how the image is handled in a typeset LaTeX version of your document. No processing at all is done on the image, so nothing can go wrong.

%begin{latexonly}
\includegraphics[clip,scale=0.2]{c:/path_to_image/image}
%end{latexonly}
\htmladdimg[align=right width=400 height=300]
   {rel_path_to_image/image.jpg}

where the rel_path_to_image needs to be relative to where
the HTML page will ultimately be located.
(e.g.  ..  if the image is in the same directory as the
 source and you are just using default locations.)


then the resulting image is not scaled but resized by
L2H to the size specified in the "image.bb" and
resized image is in grayscale, whereas as the original
was in color.

If there is a platform-specific problem, then just use \htmladdimg to avoid it.


In the case the tex source and the image files are on
separate partitions, maybe the variable $GRAPHICS_PATH
that could be set to take care of the problem?

If you are using a \graphicspath command in your LaTeX source, then this could help find a .eps version of your image. Afterall, it is just normal LaTeX processing that is taking place when you use LaTeX+dvips+Ghostscript to resample the image from an \includegraphics command.




see the previous mention thread on "gmane.editors.lyx.general"

appreciate any comments/suggestions


Hope this helps,

Ross Moore
