Thanks Paul! I had already tried doing that, but it seems ImageMagick does not read delegates.xml.

That seems very odd. You might try hiding the file (for instance, rename it to delegates.xml.z), then running IM. I would expect IM to complain about the missing delegates file.

Now I have decided to broaden my question. I would like to know if there is a way to configure LyX (or the auxiliary applications it uses) so that all fonts are embedded in a generated PDF.

With my current configuration, the fonts for the body text of the document are embedded, no matter which of the three pdf generation options I use. However, fonts inside eps figures are not embedded.

My installation uses pdfview.exe to handle the generation of pdf. How can it be configured so that pdflatex, ps2pdf and dvipdfm embedd figure fonts?


PDFView does not generate the PDF output; its job is to pass the PDF file to the viewer (and to close older instances of the viewer if necessary). It came into being because Acrobat Reader locks the file while viewing it, so if you did View -> PDF and then tried to update without closing AR, the update failed.

You can configure an EPS -> PDF converter in LyX (Tools -> Preferences... -> Converters). I did this once upon a time, so back then apparently it was necessary. With recent changes to the graphics handling, I'm not sure LyX will use that converter even if it is defined, but it's something easy to try. If that fails, what about converting the EPS files to PDF externally (using GS) and then including the PDF versions in the LyX document?
