That's because you're missing some intermediate converter. Which is suspicious. You can load eps files I take it? Sounds like the step lyxpreview->eps isn't recognized, or even the lyxpreview format itself. > I am just changing over to .xpm as target format for the script, then there > would be no other conversion needed... So you're just hard coding the script to go from lyxpreview format to XPM. Ok as proof of principle but unnecessary. To date my converter has need quite happy loading from PPM format... I'm surprised that adding this to your preferences file doesn't do the trick: \format lyxpreview tex "LyX preview" "" \converter lyxpreview eps "your_preview_script $$i $$o" "" Perhaps you need to define a unique suffix lpv instead of tex?
