Hello,
I wrote my engineer thesis with LyX v1.6.5 in DIN A4 paper. Now I have to deliver DIN A5. This means I have had to shrink a lot of images. I found it easy to cut out these from the original PDF an input them in the smaller document.
For some reasons I switched to LyX 2. The result is that I obtain many errors since one week working on it. Now it is enough for me.
Is there anybody who wants to help my for cash? I would like to give someone the whole rubbish an get back the finished PDF.
Thanks in advance.

I'm going to assume that you have to have the text remain the same size on the A5 paper. If it's OK to be smaller, I'd just print the document on A5 paper instead of A4 (they're the same proportions).
How have you specified image sizes? If you said something like

\includegraphics[width=2cm] everywhere, then you should (in principle) be able to write a sed command or similar construction that would re-size all the images for you. You would do that on the LaTeX file, not the LyX file, however.
