Hello Les,
I found out that the program I use for creating the graphs (Origin) can
export images in the PDF format so that solved the problem. I tried
substituting the font too (Arial CE for Arial Unicode MS) which even
solved the problem with EPS images. Thanks for the advice :)

Hello Lyx users :)
I have a problem with images in lyx. I'm writing a thesis and some
graphs
are included. The problem is with the written part of the graphs -
legends, axes descriptions etc. Some diacritic markers are not displayed
in lyx output - like the letter Č is displayed as C. But when I view the
picture in a picture viewer like IrfanView, everything is displayed
correctly. I am using EPS format for images since that's the best way to
ensure the quality of the output.
Thank you for any suggestions.
Please reply to my e-mail address too since I'm not a member of the lyx
users mailinglist.
Best regards,

Tomas,
I haven't run across exactly this problem, but it seems it is a problem
with the font used in the EPS figures: the font used in the figures is
not one available to LaTeX, so one which is available is substituted,
and this happens to be one without the diacritic markers.
One solution is to convert the EPS figures to PDF figures using a method
such as ps2pdf which will embed all fonts (there are some circumstances
when ps2pdf will not embed the fonts, but you probably won't have a
problem). This will ensure the quality of the output the same as EPS
will, but you will have to use pdflatex for the output to PDF of the LyX
document.
