Hello,

  I have Xfig 3.2.3 patchlevel beta-1 (Protocol 3.2) and when I try
  to export eps I get the following error message:
 Unknown graphics language eps
 Known languages are: acad box epic eepic eepicemu gif ibmgl
jpeg latex pcx pic pitex
 
 What is your version of fig2dev?

 What happens if you try to run it from the
 command line (e.g. fig2dev -L eps myfile.fig  myfile.eps)?

It works. I can use transfig to build the Makefile or just
fig2dev.

 Is postscript generally working on your system? (e.g., can you see the
 postscript preview in LyX?)

Yes, it's working. I'm also using LaTex and things like 'dvips',
'ghostview' work perfectly well. I can also see the ps preview in
LyX. I'll download xfig-3.2.3d and transfig-3.2.3d from
www.xfig.org and try again.

 Look at www.lyx.org for new versions.

Ok. Thank you.

2001-05-29 Thread Matias Freytes

Hello,
I´d like to update my old lyx. Could you please suggest
any stable rpm for redhat 6.2, kernel 2.2.18, Xfree86-3.3.6?
I´ve used xfig for a while. A few days ago I installed a
newer version and I couldnt export eps files any longer. I can
still use dev2ps and related tools, but miss that export option.

Thank you,
Matias.






A problem: LyX-XFig

2000-07-25 Thread Emanuele Gissi Alessia Franceschi


Preamble: I am a LyX novice.

I am writing a PhD thesis with LyX, first of all I thank you very much for LyX:
it is really wonderful.

I attach a file with three examples explaining my problems.

First example: I tried to import a XFig picture not in the same directory as
the lyx document. LaTeX complains.

Second example: I moved the XFig picture in the same directory and tried again
to import it (with input). Everything works except that the picture is not
centered.

Third example: if the XFig picture are not coupled with imported eps in the same
document, LaTeX complains.

I would like to:
- keep my images in different directories than the text (as in
the first example),
- center the XFig pictures that I succed importing (as in second example),
- have a document with only one XFig picture (as in third example).

I read the manuals, but I did not find any solution.
My config is the following: Linux Mandrake 7.1 on a i386, LyX 1.1.5fix1.

I thank you once again.

*I would like to:
*- keep my images in different directories than the text (as in
*the first example),

I have found two non satisfactory solutions :
either
- create a symbolic link to the pstex and pstex_t in your /texts/ dir
or
- change the paths in the _t file ie:
change 
\includegraphics{core_audit.pstex}%
into
\includegraphics{../graphs/core_audit.pstex}%


*- center the XFig pictures that I succed importing (as in second example),

input \center in latex mode right before, in a figure float, for instance.

This should work for your 3rd question as well (only one file).

Included  example 4.
