Issue with epstopdf not working in LaTeX Compilation

[Jian Guo]

Dear TeX Support Team,




I hope this email finds you well.

I am currently working with a LaTeX document that includes .eps files, and I am encountering an issue with the epstopdf package. Specifically, while epstopdf appears to be loaded correctly, the .eps files are not being converted to .pdf as expected during compilation. I have checked the following aspects, but the issue persists:

Package Installation: The epstopdf package is properly installed in my TeX distribution (TeX Live 2024), and I can manually convert .eps files to .pdf using the epstopdf command without any issues.

-shell-escape Option: I have ensured that the -shell-escape option is enabled in the LaTeX editor (WinEdt 11.2), as confirmed by the log output showing the runsystem(epstopdf ...) command. However, epstopdf seems not to run automatically during compilation.

Permissions: I have verified that there are no permission issues with the .eps files or the output directory. The epstopdf command works manually, but during LaTeX compilation, the .pdf conversion does not seem to trigger automatically.

File Path and Directory: The .eps files and the LaTeX source are located in the same directory, and I have tried using relative paths, but the issue persists.

Despite these checks, the error message "File 'feedback_n-eps-converted-to.pdf' not found: using draft setting" still appears, suggesting that LaTeX cannot find the converted .pdf file, even though epstopdf appears to execute successfully in the logs.




I would appreciate any advice or suggestions you may have on resolving this issue. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Best regards.
