Re: EPS files not displaying in PDF

2010-02-16 Thread Todd Salamon

I went ahead and tried View - PDF (ps2pdf) as well as View - PDF
(dvipdfm), and both of these approaches yield only a single blank page of
output in the PDF.

When I build via View - PDF (pdflatex) the PDF files that are created in the
Lyx Temp directory only have an empty bounding box, so something is being
corrupted in the conversion.

When I type convert I do not have to specify the path. Though I do notice that
the PATH variable has the most recent ImageMagick location listed first (6.5.9),
followed by an older ImageMagick install (6.2.9). Could this cause any problems?
Though I was still seeing the same error with the 6.2.9 ImageMagick version, so
maybe not???

Lastly, I looked at the *.log output in the Lyx Temp directory, and the
following warning message is showing up for the EPS to PDF conversions:

Package pdftex.def Warning: Option `bb' does not make sense,
(pdftex.def)using `viewport' instead on input line 1230.

I did download the latest version Lyx 1.6.5, but ended up seeing the same
behavior. Though there is an issue in the installation where the installer isn't
able to write a file, and I tell it to simply ignore the error and proceed. The
details are earlier in this thread. This applies to version 1.5.7 that is
currently installed as well as 1.6.5.

I installed Lyx 1.6.5 and MiKTeX 2.8 and this has fixed the problem.

One note: the Lyx/MiKTeX install didn't work unless I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat
Reader, restarted, installed Lyx/MiKTeX and then re-installed Acrobat Reader.

Thanks for the suggestion Uwe.

EPS files not displaying in PDF

2010-02-15 Thread Todd Salamon
I am running Lyx 1.5.7 on Windows XP SP2 with MiKTeX 2.5 installed. I have a
document with PDF and EPS files for figures. The preview shows both, but when I
try View - PDF (pdflatex) the resulting PDF file only includes the PDF
images, and the EPS files show up as empty boxes with nothing inside.

If I export to PostScript and view the *.ps file, the PDF and EPS graphics all
show up fine.

Any idea why this is happening with PDF?


Thanks.

I just tried updating to ImageMagick 6.5.9-5-Q16 and that didn't make any
difference.

P.S. FYI - in the process of installing Lyx there was an error related to
writing a file. Any of the ... below are too long for me to write.

Error opening file for writing:

MiKTeX 2.5SystemAdmin yesPowerUser noSharedSetup BinDir... binOS... Root0...
Root1... Root2... UserData... UserConfig... fndb0... fndb1... fndb2... 
fndbmpm C\Documents and Sett\dvipost.sty

I had the option of choosing Abort, Retry and Ignore. Retry would give
the same error, so I went ahead with Ignore.









Re: EPS files not displaying in PDF

2010-02-15 Thread Todd Salamon

The convert command does work ok. I went ahead and tried

convert filename.eps filename.pdf

The PDF is a bit grainy and unresolved, but there is definitely an image there,
whereas in the document it's an empty bounding box.

I also tried opening filename.eps in Adobe Illustrator and it complained about
the following fonts

CMMI7:
  Default font substituted for missing font.

and the same message for CMR7, CMSY7, CMMI10.

My colleagues is running Lyx 1.5.xx, with MiKTeX 2.7, and he doesn't seem to
have an issue with creating the PDF.
