I find that hard to believe. Latex has problems with spaces in file names. Other utilities should be Ok, especially since you're unlikely to refer to the gs executable using a hard-coded path. Rather you're going to rely on some PATH environment variable to search certain directories for it. Dunno what the variable is called in Win-World. Moreover, unless you're an 'unusual' Windows user, you're using the default convertDefault.sh script, right? Run lyx -dbg graphics from the console to check. That script uses ImageMagick's convert utility to perform the conversion. Do you have this installed? Can the script find it or does it find the Win32 system utility by the same name? Assuming that you're invoking the correct convert, can it find the gs executable? If the answer to any of these is 'no', then it may be easiest to just define your own eps->png converter using the preferences dialog. It should result in something like this being added to your .lyx/preferences file: \converter "eps" "png" "my_ps2png $$i $$o" "" FWIW, I add my my_ps2png shell script. You might find it useful. You might not. -- Angus
