When I have pdfs images embedded in my document they don't display in the Lyx window (they appear in the final PDF however). Where the images should preview it just says, "Error converting to loadable format". I've tried looking at the latex log, but I can't seem to gain any insight as to how to resolve this issue. I've also tried searching many forums online but they all seem to point to updating ghostscript, which doesn't apply

This has nothing to do with LaTeX, that do not need at all this conversion. Check the instalation and configuration of the converter (See Preferences > File Handling > Converters > "LyX Preview -> PNG". For Linux the default is python -tt $$s/scripts/lyxpreview2bitmap.py --png –Fran Aug 23 at 23:45 @Fran, I'm using windows. this was the command there: python -tt $$s/scripts/lyxpreview2bitmap.py --png. –Veridian Aug 24 at 16:32 Sorry, I noticed that is not the right converter. Probably is another convert or a bug of Ghostsript. I posted a general answer that should allow you to find the solution. –Fran Aug 25 at 8:27 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote Short answer: https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/FiguresInLyX Long answer: To view a image on the LyX screen, it is required a compatible format with that XForms or Qt GUI libraries, namely bmp, gif, jpeg, pbm, pgm, ppm, tif, xbm or mng, png and xpm, respectively. A message "Error converting to loadable format" mean that is not possible convert the image to PNG or any of these formats. then you'll need to augment the list of known converters. The link shows a detailed example of adding a converter. Pay attention that the converters are in the right pa
to loadable formatBy dan – January 4, 2011Posted in: LyX, inkscape scripts & stuff I recently ran into an error on my Mac install of LyX, where pdf images weren't being displayed. After some searching, it looks like the error is a bug in Ghostscript 8.70, and can be http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/326244/lyx-error-converting-to-loadable-format-for-pdfs fixed easily: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg80148.html With Ghostscript 9.00 now out, this bug should be squashed (although I haven't checked). Edit: After upgrading to Lion, this error reared its ugly head again. After reinstalling Imagemagick (6.7.1-1) and Ghostscript (9.02), using http://blog.thetelegraphic.com/2011/lyx-error-converting-pdf-to-loadable-format/ Homebrew, my install is back in action. http://twitter.com/bikeboy Chad Frost Thanks for the helpful post, I ran into this and was stumped.

in 1.4.1. In LyX 1.4.1 Insert > Graphics givesonly a graphics box that contains the (correct) name of the graphicsfile I'm trying to insert and the message "Error converting toloadable format." (In case it's relevant, I downloaded 1.4.1 after myMac OS had been upgraded to 10.4.5. During the upgrade, my hard drivewas replaced, but the line drawings remained untouched on theuniversity server.)Any help would be much appreciated.Bruce Bruce Pourciau 2006-06-07 18:45:04 UTC PermalinkRaw Message After more investigation, the figures that yield the conversion error(below) appear to be figures that I had previously uploaded to thesubmissions website of a journal. Other figures load just fine. (Sothis does not seem to be a 1.3.4 vs 1.4.1 problem.) Can the processof uploading a figure file in some cases have an effect on theoriginal figure file, an effect that then prevents that figure fromloading into LyX?BrucePost by Bruce PourciauSome line drawings (in eps format) which loaded just fine using LyX1.3.4 now do not load in 1.4.1.

When I tried today toopen that manuscript in LyX/Mac 1.4.1, none of the figures loaded:the graphics boxes either said "Error in converting to loadableformat" or something like "Not found."More detail: In a folder called Research, I have a folder calledProp6 and other folders. The Prop6 folder contains original figures(in cvs format, created using Canvas) and also figures in eps format(without preview) made from these original Canvas figures. The epsfigures used to load just fine in LyX/Mac 1.3.4. Now in LyX/mac 1.4.1these same eps figures give the message "Erro
