eps to jpg is the wrong way, convert them _always_ to pdf with
epstopdf.
The preamble to the LaTeX source file now looks much like the one
used in the traditional method:
\documentclass[pdftex,...]{article} % the pdftex is essential
\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx} % to include images
\usepackage{pslatex} % to use PostScript fonts
using options pdftex _and_ dvips makes no sense, use
only one of it.
I'm back. Sleep is good!!
Any suggestions on how I can go about changing the behaviour
of lyx? I was unaware that I had control over the LaTeX that
LyX outputs. I'm more than willing and able to read documentation,
but I'd appreciate being pointed to the right chapter.
I've read the available documentation under "Help", but can't
recall any detailed documentation on exactly what LyX calls
to convert the LyX code to LaTeX and then to PDF. Once I understand
that process, I'll be able to see what might be broken on
my system, maybe even contribute a general-purpose script
(I'm very good at scripts) if necessary.
Thanks,
Marc
