Re: Image conversion and Lyx qt 1.3.2 win

[jorgen johansson]

Hello Ben,

I am not sure if I can help you with this.

I tested with and witout specifying a converter.
Below are 2 snippets.
In either case I don't get any message about ghostscript being called as 
you get..? (Does this depend on the debug setting? I start lyx with -dbg 
graphics)



When I specify (in the prefs):
\converter "eps" "ppm" "convert $$i $$o" ""
I get the following debug message when an eps figure is converted:

--snip--

If I don't specify a converter I get:
