Thanks for your response Uwe,
I was originally using Image Magick 6.0.2 (I think). I upgraded it to
6.1.9 but I am still having the same problem!
I am using AFPL Ghostscript 8.50 and LyXWin 1.3.5 win32 nc.
- I can view .jpg and .ppm images inside LyX
- I can not view .eps or .pdf images inside LyX
- I can view the DVI, PDF(pdflatex)and Postscript outputs fine (but not
the PDF (dvipdfm) output)
I can run convert from the command line ("convert eps:c:\aulogo.eps
ppm:c:\test.ppm"), and was able to convert the .eps image that LyX was
having trouble with to a .ppm
Any more ideas on what might be wrong??
I ran LyX in graphics debug mode and I have included the output at the end
of this email.
Thanks in advance
