Using Mathematica I created a figure that contains axes labeled with numerals.

Does anyone know what's going on here and whether this behavior can be stopped or controlled?

Just guessing here, but maybe it's a font swap? If Mathematica is using one of its own fonts for the numerals, maybe Adobe is not finding the font and switching to something else? Hard to say without seeing the EPS file.

I would have tried saving the figure as a pdf file, rather than an eps file, to see if that helped, but Mathematica does not offer that option.

Mathematica will export graphics as PDF files (using the Export function). At least it will for me. :-) The only problem, IIRC, is that you might need to clip the image when you import the PDF file into your LyX document.

Thanks, Paul. You're right about Mathematica exporting as pdf, and the pdf was in fact more accurate than the eps.
