I have not been following this thread but have just read the background
stuff. I then downloaded the file which seems to actually be a .ps rather
than .eps file but no matter. Using ghostscript to convert to .eps I
reproduce the same problems experienced.
But if I open the eps in Adibe Illustrator and then resave it the problems
disappear. Clearly somewhere the eps has got messed up.
I am not sure who needs the correct file but I have an eps of the original
that works in lyx with dvi and postscript output.
Email me and I will send it - it is too big to attach to the mailing list.

[Apologies if this is a repeat. The first time I sent it, I got a bounce
message because I had attached a zip archive.]
Actually, I think it's a single page with 25 layers. When I embed the
original graphic in a LyX doc and display the DVI, it looks "smudged",
which I think is due to the layers being slightly offset from each
other. I opened the graphic in Paint Shop Pro and isolated the first
layer. It's not smudged, but it's faint and not very sharp.
Apparently either IODE or GnuPlot did something peculiar. I can't tell
what the differences among the layers are, but no layer by itself is a
legible, complete image. The legend at the top center of the image
appears in layers 1, 3, 9, 11, 17, 19 and 25 but not the others.
According to PSP, layers 2, 10 and 18 don't exist (or at least PSP opens
the others in separate windows but doesn't find those).
At any rate, the problem here is neither with LyX nor with LaTeX; the
image is munged.

I noted it contained 25 pages. Is that really what you wanted?

In any case, the .eps file is rather large, so I won't post it here, but
here's a link to get it for yourself:
