However, the memory issue suggests to me that there might be something wrong with your temp directory. This is where LyX stores the images it converts to its native format. You can set this directory in Edit->Preferences->Inputs->Paths. Be sure that you have permission to write in the temp directory and that the device holding the temp directory is not full. > The file contains ps format data. > No conversion needed! > Loading image. > xforms image loader.
