Thanks, Paul. In fact, the command

convert myfile.eps myfile.pdf

does the job correctly. Probably, the problem has to be with LyX.

Ok. I'm assuming you're not running Windows (if you are, there may be a problem with spaces in the path to the EPS file, although that doesn't create any problems for me).

A workaround is to convert the EPS file to something else (PDF?) outside LyX and insert the converted image into the LyX document. If you want to pursue this further, try editing the convertDefault.sh script by inserting the following line immediately before 'exit 1':

echo "Trying to convert \"$1\" to \"$2\"." >&2

With any luck, if you reproduce the error, this should tell which file it was trying to convert and where it was trying to store the result. That will let you check for correct paths, read/write permissions etc.
