Hi everrybody!

I'm using Lyx to produce pdf documents with lots of figures included.
Therefore, I export every figure to pdf and then compile using PDFLATEX.
Almost everything is fine except two points:

a) I can not include bitmap pictures. Here is the procedure I follow:
     * I convert the pictures to EPS with The Gimp.      --> Nice 
output. I've viewed the result with GV.

     * I convert the picture to PDF with epstopdf.       --> Again the 
result is fine (I've opened it with acroread)

     * I Include the PDF file into a figure float in Lyx --> I get a 
completely distorted and color-inverted image when I open it with 
acroread or even worse: acroread is simply not able to display it !!!!

b) I wanted to include a table from a pdf document, and again, if I 
create a file out of the table and I include the file into a figure 
float in Lyx I can even visualize the result with acroread but when I 
print it I only get the lines of the table. It should be said that the 
characters are shown as bitmaps.

I would be most gratefull if someone could give me some ideas on how to 
deal with this problems, specially the first one, since it's very 
important for my work to be able to include some scanned figures.

V�ctor

PS: Please, Help me!!! If I can not include those pictures I'll be 
forced to return to the hell of msword!!!!
