1) HTML
This seems like a problem of the latex2html converter (do you use
latex2html ?). Some converters (e.g. tth) will not create PNG if they find
existing PNG.
You can solve the problem with latex2html by using the following ERT for
each image:
\latex{insert image inset here}
\begin{rawhtml}<img src="foo.png">\end{rawhtml}
Since it is tiresome to do it for each image, you can write a perl script that
takes a latex file, and replaces each \includegraphics{foo.eps} command
by
\latex{\includegraphics{foo.eps}}
\begin{rawhtml}<img src="foo.png">\end{rawhtml}
2) PDF
Lyx doesn't do any image conversion when creating PDF.
Do you use an external script (tex2pdf), or do you use the CVS version of lyx ?
