LyX ⇒ Matlabfrag will not compile direct to PDF?

[scal]

Using matlabfrag for Latex->PDF does not work? The manual states that it should.

Using matlabfrag for Latex->PS->PDF works fine. Why?

I am using psfragfig with the pstool package as suggested. I have enabled the shell escape feature I think correctly.

Note - Once I have created a pdf using ps2pdf, then close it and create a new pdf using the default method (latex to pdf) then it somehow works fine? Has something in the previous conversion process changed some settings or created a temporary file?

Can someone more advanced than me explain this?

Thanks,

scal

As far as I know Latex->Pdf will not work with postscript formats (.eps and .ps), so you will have to convert to another format, or compile through ps.
