Using ps2pdf12 or ps2pdf13 manually rather than using ps2pdf seemed to
fix the problem. Now in 1.2.1, only the first 8 pages will print - EVEN
THOUGH all 20 pages show quite nicely in gv. If I try to print directly
from gv, again only the first 8 pages will print.

I can send the document if someone needs it to help diagnose the problem.

This is a much more serious problem because I need to be able to print
the documents and make them into pdf's. If I can't do that, there is not
much point to using LyX.

Why can gv view the entire document but not print it???

If it's a postscript printer, then there is probably some 
non-standard/printer-incompatible postscript in your output --- this is why 
the latest is not always the greatest. Star/OpenOffice have serious problems 
here.

With latex, I found that ps printers (HP lasers) can't handle some compressed 
image formats (png, jpeg) that have been converted to eps (with ImageMagik 
convert or the Gimp). So I always convert images to xpm before converting 
to eps.

This is not a printer problem. This appears to be a LyX and/or 
ghostscript problem. Either ghostscript has a bug or LyX is not 
producing correct postscript. Here is what ghostscript does with the 
Postscript file created by LyX:

Well, if I am mistaken, GV needs the ghostscript to display anything.
So if gv works fine then you probably not passing the right parameters
to the ghostview when printing.

The similiar problem happens to me due to a bad EPS figure I included. 
Try remove the recently added figures and see it that helps.  Figure
out which figure that causes the problem, and do something about it.

One other thing, if you recently updated or changed configuration of
gs/gv/printer, you probably messed up something.

If still not working, post the document. There are people who can help.

Please see my latest post on this. gv displays the document EXCEPT for 
page 9. There is something about the eps graph created by R that 
ghostscript doesn't like. I'm at a loss to explain it because the graph 
on page 9 is very similar to the ones on pages 8 and 10. I would be 
happy to upload the graphic. I've tried recreating it and it still won't 
display in the LyX Postscript version, even if I create a new LyX 
document with only the eps graphic, even though gv will view the graphic 
itself directly without any error messages.

The problem eps file is very similar to the eps graph on the page before

Now of course when I put the problem file in a separate LyX document, it 
produces a postscript view and a pdf view. The large document, however, 
still will not print or view page 9. I can send you the problem eps but, 
unfortunately,  I can't send the 20 page LyX document. The problem 
appears to be in the larger LyX document and not the eps file itself. 
I'm using the lscape package (in the preamble) with 
\begin{landscape} and \end{landscape} around the eps file(s). If I 
remove  this, however, the problem eps still won't print or view.

Using ps2pdf12 or ps2pdf13 manually rather than using ps2pdf seemed to
fix the problem. Now in 1.2.1, only the first 8 pages will print - EVEN
THOUGH all 20 pages show quite nicely in gv. If I try to print directly
from gv, again only the first 8 pages will print.

I can send the document if someone needs it to help diagnose the problem.

This is a much more serious problem because I need to be able to print
the documents and make them into pdf's. If I can't do that, there is not
much point to using LyX.

Why can gv view the entire document but not print it???

If it's a postscript printer, then there is probably some 
non-standard/printer-incompatible postscript in your output --- this is why 
the latest is not always the greatest. Star/OpenOffice have serious problems 
here.

With latex, I found that ps printers (HP lasers) can't handle some compressed 
image formats (png, jpeg) that have been converted to eps (with ImageMagik 
convert or the Gimp). So I always convert images to xpm before converting 
to eps.

This is not a printer problem. This appears to be a LyX and/or 
ghostscript problem. Either ghostscript has a bug or LyX is not 
producing correct postscript. Here is what ghostscript does with the 
Postscript file created by LyX:

Well, if I am mistaken, GV needs the ghostscript to display anything.
So if gv works fine then you probably not passing the right parameters
to the ghostview when printing.

The similiar problem happens to me due to a bad EPS figure I included. 
Try remove the recently added figures and see it that helps.  Figure
out which figure that causes the problem, and do something about it.

One other thing, if you recently updated or changed configuration of
gs/gv/printer, you probably messed up something.

If still not working, post the document. There are people who can help.

Please see my latest post on this. gv displays the document EXCEPT for 
page 9. There is something about the eps graph created by R that 
ghostscript doesn't like. I'm at a loss to explain it because the graph 
on page 9 is very similar to the ones on pages 8 and 10. I would be 
happy to upload the graphic. I've tried recreating it and it still won't 
display in the LyX Postscript version, even if I create a new LyX 
document with only the eps graphic, even though gv will view the graphic 
itself directly without any error messages.

The problem eps file is very similar to the eps graph on the page before

Now of course when I put the problem file in a separate LyX document, it 
produces a postscript view and a pdf view. The large document, however, 
still will not print or view page 9. I can send you the problem eps but, 
unfortunately,  I can't send the 20 page LyX document. The problem 
appears to be in the larger LyX document and not the eps file itself. 
I'm using the lscape package (in the preamble) with 
\begin{landscape} and \end{landscape} around the eps file(s). If I 
remove  this, however, the problem eps still won't print or view.

I can send the document if someone needs it to help diagnose the problem.

This is a much more serious problem because I need to be able to print
the documents and make them into pdf's. If I can't do that, there is not
much point to using LyX.

Why can gv view the entire document but not print it???

If it's a postscript printer, then there is probably some 
non-standard/printer-incompatible postscript in your output --- this is why 
the latest is not always the greatest. Star/OpenOffice have serious problems 
here.

With latex, I found that ps printers (HP lasers) can't handle some compressed 
image formats (png, jpeg) that have been converted to eps (with ImageMagik 
"convert" or the Gimp). So I always convert images to xpm before converting 
to eps.

This is not a printer problem. This appears to be a LyX and/or 
ghostscript problem. Either ghostscript has a bug or LyX is not 
producing correct postscript. Here is what ghostscript does with the 
Postscript file created by LyX:

Well, if I am mistaken, GV needs the ghostscript to display anything.
So if gv works fine then you probably not passing the right parameters
to the ghostview when printing.

The similiar problem happens to me due to a bad EPS figure I included. 
Try remove the recently added figures and see it that helps.  Figure
out which figure that causes the problem, and do something about it.

One other thing, if you recently updated or changed configuration of
gs/gv/printer, you probably messed up something.

If still not working, post the document. There are people who can help.

Please see my latest post on this. gv displays the document EXCEPT for 
page 9. There is something about the eps graph created by R that 
ghostscript doesn't like. I'm at a loss to explain it because the graph 
on page 9 is very similar to the ones on pages 8 and 10. I would be 
happy to upload the graphic. I've tried recreating it and it still won't 
display in the LyX Postscript version, even if I create a new LyX 
document with only the eps graphic, even though gv will view the graphic 
itself directly without any error messages.

The problem eps file is very similar to the eps graph on the page before 
and the eps graph on the page after. All were created using the 
"postscript" function in R with arguments required to produce and eps 
(and not just ps) file. Here are the first few lines. I would be happy 
to upload the entire eps file if someone wants to try it.

I could try and see if it crashes for me if you'd like, but if it's big 
and you can't just send a link to it, perhaps you'd better just send it 
in a private mail?

If I remember correctly, it crashed if you inserted it in a .lyx-file and 
try to view it with gv?

Now of course when I put the problem file in a separate LyX document, it 
produces a postscript view and a pdf view. The large document, however, 
still will not print or view page 9. I can send you the problem eps but, 
unfortunately,  I can't send the 20 page LyX document. The problem 
appears to be in the larger LyX document and not the eps file itself. 
I'm using the "lscape" package (in the preamble) with 
"\begin{landscape}" and "\end{landscape}" around the eps file(s). If I 
remove  this, however, the "problem" eps still won't print or view.

emailers, which can roll down just to the relevant part (e.g., I have to 
use Mozilla now, and it is PITA to scroll through many pages of 
nonsense, just to get to the real message "I agree" :-( ).

You can give this a go

http://www.spme.monash.edu.au/~stevenh/Public/lyx1.2-to-lyx1.1/

It works for my documents. Table borders might need manual resetting.

New More Serious Problems with 1.2.1 - Partial Printing

2002-11-18 Thread Richard A. Bilonick
I have a 20 page document that I was previously working on using LyX 
1.1.6fix3. It would print just fine - all 20 pages via postscript. If I 
tried to view it through pdf, it would screw up some figure captions. 
Using ps2pdf12 or ps2pdf13 manually rather than using ps2pdf seemed to 
fix the problem. Now in 1.2.1, only the first 8 pages will print - EVEN 
THOUGH all 20 pages show quite nicely in gv. If I try to print directly 
from gv, again only the first 8 pages will print.

I can send the document if someone needs it to help diagnose the problem.

This is a much more serious problem because I need to be able to print 
the documents and make them into pdf's. If I can't do that, there is not 
much point to using LyX.

Why can gv view the entire document but not print it???

If it's a postscript printer, then there is probably some 
non-standard/printer-incompatible postscript in your output --- this is why 
the latest is not always the greatest. Star/OpenOffice have serious problems 
here.

With latex, I found that ps printers (HP lasers) can't handle some compressed 
image formats (png, jpeg) that have been converted to eps (with ImageMagik 
convert or the Gimp). So I always convert images to xpm before converting 
to eps.
