I read all the previous questions on the automatic epstopdf
conversion which does not work and none answers my own problem though I am in a seemingly identical case with some of the previously reported cases.
I use TexStudio 2.8.6 on a Mac 10.7.5.
I have made a simple test case document.tex
trying to load an essai.eps
file in it. It does not work :
Package epstopdf Info: Source file: <essai.eps>
(epstopdf) date: 2014-12-04 13:00:47
(epstopdf) size: 48317 bytes
(epstopdf) Output file: <./essai-eps-converted-to.pdf>
(epstopdf) Command: <epstopdf --outfile=./essai-eps-converted-to.pd
f essai.eps>
(epstopdf) \includegraphics on input line 154.
runsystem(epstopdf --outfile=./essai-eps-converted-to.pdf essai.eps)...executed
.
Package epstopdf Info: Result file: <./essai-eps-converted-to.pdf>.
! Package pdftex.def Error: File `./essai-eps-converted-to.pdf' not found.
See the pdftex.def package documentation for explanation.
I have tried to add -shell-escape
or --shell-escape
(is it 1 or 2 dashes? both are mentioned in the different posts), i also added usepackage[outdir=./]{epstopdf}
. Nothing works. However the problem is internal to TexStudio since running pdflatex document.tex
on the command line works perfectly and produces the .pdf
images I need.
Therefore I guess that TexStudio is trying to write the file in a strange place and possibly in a place where it is not authorized to write because a global search on the whole hard drive does not find the file.
What is wrong with TexStudio ?
.log
file that is produced with the two methods? – egreg Dec 5 '14 at 10:42
