Hi,

For many years I'm using Lyx and it is really great! I'm writting because this week I instaled in a new computer, windows and all softares I use. So I instaled the new version of lyx using the file lyx-143-4-bundle.exe, with miktex , etc. Everything is fine except for the files with figures (including the ones which comes with lyx in the help). For exemple in the user guide in section 4.3 in the place where should be the first figure it appears an retangle and inside appears

mobius.eps
Error converting to loadable format

The same problem happen in all the files I have with figures.
Why I can not see the figures? What could be the problem?

Best regards,
Marco.


1. Did the bundle installer install ImageMagick (or did you have it already)?

2.  Does ImageMagick work?  (From a command prompt run

     convert logo: logo.gif
     display logo.gif

and see if the ImageMagick logo displays. If ImageMagick is not on your system path, you may need to cd into its directory for this to work.)

3. Is Ghostscript installed? (ImageMagick needs Ghostscript to convert Postscript and Encapsulated Postscript images.) Again assuming that ImageMagick is on the command path, you can try opening a command prompt in the <LyX root>\Resources\doc directory and run

     convert mobius.eps mobius.ppm

to see if ImageMagick can find Ghostscript.

4. Is ImageMagick on your system command path or on LyX's path prefix (Tools->Preferences->Paths->PATH prefix)?
