Because of the way that the pdf file is generated by pdflatex, eps files do not get included properly (dvips does handle eps properly, I guess). In any case, the following steps will get your eps file in your document:
- Put both a pdf and eps version of the figure in the directory. To create a pdf version from the eps, run pstopdf file.eps. Two caveats:
- It would be nice if you could just directly save a pdf, but chances are the program will try to encapsulate your figure in an entire 8.5x11 page. pstopdf makes a fit-to-size pdf.
- For whatever reason, pstopdf worked but epstopdf didn't. Go figure. So, just use pstopdf.
- In your latex, use the following syntax. Note that by leaving off the extension, your pdf-converter will guess the extension it can understand -- be it eps or pdf. Hence, it should be portable!
