Hello

No one answered the attached message, but I was able to solve this problem thanks to a message from Konrad Hofbauer on another subject. Konrad indicated how to open LyX from the terminal. Doing so, I was able to see that the problem originated from the program "convert". After reinstalling a recent version of "imagemagick" an reconfiguring LyX, the problem has been solved. May be this information will help someone.

Objet : problem with postscript figures and mac os 10.5

Hello

I work with a powerbook G4, and now with mac os 10.5.2, to which I recently migrated from the last version of mac os 10.4. Since then I have the following problem: some postscript figures, but not all, do not show up in lyx, although they appear correctly in the typeset tex file. The lyx diagnostic is "erreur lors de la conversion vers un format lisible", which means in english "error while converting to a readable format". The strange fact is that some figures are correctly displayed while others, very similar, are not displayed. I have two examples of two figures, one of which is a simple modification of the other, and one is displayed and the other not. The path for all figures is the same and is the full one. Most of my figures are created using xfig, but the problem does not seem to be linked with that. It occurs also for figures created with mathematica and excel.

Did anybody experience the same problem, and/or knows how to solve it?
