Error: Cannot convert file No information for converting bmp format files to eps. Define a converter in the preferences. This is one error, but not the one we're chasing. Apparently, you have a bmp file somewhere in your document, and LyX doesn't know how to convert it to eps, which is the format needed for dvi. If we're trying to debug the math problem, then you need to do this with a simple file that has nothing but one word, then a footnote with a word and some math in it. Otherwise, we get these spurious errors. rh
