Based on Daniel Groger's work of five years ago, with minor changes
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel%40lists.lyx.org/msg169820.html
This extends the support for Xfig LaTeX + PDF to a more modern and
actively developed vector graphics editor. Embedded Objects manual
updated, also to include a workaround for an Inkscape 0.91 bug.
We do already have docx, but xlsx was missing. This is a separate format
because of the MIME type. nd because some users might need converters which
can only handle one format. Now the spreadsheet template does not hide the
fact anymore that it can deal with xlsx files as well.
The external templates requested conversion to these formats, but there was no
converter defined, so plain text export did fail, and there are no obvious ways
to create plain text representations for the files used by these templates.
Now we output the file name as for other templates and also the graphics inset.
This fixes bug #7135.
The external date inset was implemented as a demonstrator for external insets
in general. It was never intended for production code. Now that we have several
external insets defined we do not need the demonstrator anymore. This fixes
bugs #4398 and #9948.
Actually photos (i.e. .jpg files) where supported previously, but for pdflatex
output an unneeded conversion to png was done. The RasterImage templates
behaves now exactly as InsetGraphics for these files: If the input format is
jpg, use that for pdflatex, else convert to png.
The difference to bitmap graphics is that these will be included as PDF for
pdflatex, so the vector properties are retained if a suitable conversion path
exists.
Previously, the format used for included pdf files was the same as for
document export via ps2pdf. This caused unwanted conversion routes, e.g.
export via odt->pdf instead of dvi->ps->pdf.
I renamed the format for included graphics and not for exported documents,
since otherwise the command line syntax for export would change. This would
require more adaptions for the users, since with the chosen solution the
custom converters are almost always changed correctly in prefs2prefs(),
so that only custom external templates need manual adjustement.
- Remove hack with $$AbsOrRelPath substitution in the guiName.
Instead, let LyX display the filename automatically in the gui,
consistent with InsetInclude.
- Use the guiName in the drop-down menu in the dialog instead of the
internal lyxName. These guiNames ought to be more descriptive.

- set AutomaticProduction to true for PDFpages
so that the PDF file is copied to the tmp dir (bug 6345)

- remove formatting and chars from help text that makes translation fail.

- the display combo in the prefs, external and graphics dialogs are gone
- the lyxrc display_graphics option now overrides any local inset display option
- The external template format has a new tag: Preview
- format incremented to 337

- bug fix: if no specific PDFLaTeX out format is defined, we have to use
the LaTeX requirement tag in pdflatex output
* lib/external_templates:
- remove unneeded PDFLaTeX format specification.
