What technique are you using? I just used the following steps, with
excellent output on a 600 DPI Postscript printer:
1. Use XV to grab a window (an 800x800 Xemacs window);
2. Save the grabbed file as full-colour (24-bit) TIFF (you could
save it as a greyscale TIFF if you didn't need to make a PDF
file or print it to a colour printer);
3. Convert to EPS with "tiff2ps -e file.tiff > file.eps";
4. Insert it in LyX as an EPS figure.
How are you generating the EPS file?
You're not attempting to scale the image outside of LyX, are you?
