hi, slightly OT here (just latex without lyx), but maybe somebody can
help or direct me to a more appropriate place to ask:

I use tex4ht to convert a latex document to MS-Word by exporting it to a
sxw-file (oolatex command), and then save that as a Word doc with
Staroffice/Openoffice. Most of it works quite well (to my surprise).

The remaining problem I have is graphics conversion. (I have ghostscript
and imagemagick installed -- oh, btw this is on windows 2k.) If I start
out with standard eps-files (tex4ht doesn't appear to work with
pdflatex, right?), I can get them included into the Openoffice-sxw such
that they get printed (although they don't show up on screen). However,
after converting to doc they are lost.

so my questions:
1) is it normal not to have a preview or bitmap or anything of the
eps-graphics in the openoffice output?

2) I looked (and already had to make some adjustments) in the tex4ht.env
file, where it says "choose one G-script" (this is related to graphics
conversion); how do I do that? (and which?)

3) any other hints?

thanks much and have a good weekend
