I'm using the following commands to convert EPS files to PDF.

Run LaTeX here

In this way I can use PDFLaTeX and I don't care about the type of figures: EPS, PDF, PNG, etc.

Everything works fine on a machine (Win 7 pro) with TexnicCenter 1.0 + MiKTeX 2.9 x32 (which is an older version without the latest updates; I'm not administrator on that machine so I can't do any update).

On my personal PC (Win 7 pro) with TexnicCenter 1.0 + MiKTeX 2.9x32 (with the latest updates) the conversion doesn't work:

Code: Select all

I have reinstalled both MiKTeX and TexnicCenter and still it doesn't work. Windows UAC is disabled, COMODO (with defence+) is disabled too. When I remove the period from ".eps", it works but it takes only the "-dEPSCrop" argument; the other arguments are not considered, and so the fonts aren't embedded.

I have also tried:

• to move the project files to another partition, thinking that it may be a problem with the path.
• installing TeXnicCenter x64 + MiKTeX 2.9 x64 (which is the current configuration) and the problem persist.

I have no other ideas left. If you can test this command on your PC, please let a reply.

it removes the original EPS file with a 3kB one .
Is this the correct way to use epstopdf package, or did I do something wrong ?

Hi Chakeel,

Thanks in advance.

Hi and welcome,
i don't think the user will come here again to check up on the question.
We have enough space for many manny more question, i would suggest you start a new topic and we start analyzing from scratch, just for you.

Please try with a very minimal example first. If this does not work, please share the example and the log-file with us.
