epstopdf does not create any output when run by latexmk

Question

EDIT: I was pointed to a solution by someone else.

I use Sublime Text 2 as my editor, and use the LatexTools package to compile the file.

In my case, I had forgotten to add ;%PATH% to my texpath variable in the platform specific build settings:

"texpath" : "C:\\texlive\\2015\\bin\\win32;%PATH%",

After this I could compile my project without any issues.

So I'm trying to include some .eps images in my LaTeX file. I have included the "epstopdf" package, and judging by the log file it appears to find my EPS files no problem.

Except latexmk complains that it can't find the converted PDF files once they've been run through epstopdf.

Here's a section of my log file regarding the inclusion of such an EPS file:

LaTeX Font Info:    External font `cmex10' loaded for size
(Font)              <7> on input line 601.

l.616 \includegraphics[width=2.5in]{setup_3d.eps}

And the corresponding LaTeX snippet:

\begin{figure}[!t]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=2.5in]{setup_3d.eps}
\caption{A schematic drawing.}
\label{fig:overview_3d}
\end{figure}

I can run the exact conversion command listed in the log manually, and it produces the correct output. However, when it's run by latexmk, the log claims all is well and dandy, yet no PDF files are produced.

I have looked through a number of answers to the "xxx-converted-to-pdf" question, and I have tried the following solutions:

• Enable --shell-escape
• Use the \epstopdfsetup{outdir=some/path/} to manually set an output directory. Tried both absolute and relative paths.
• Use the \graphicspath{} command to set an input directory. Also tried absolute and relative paths here.
• Delete LaTeX cache/generated files in the directory of my main document file.

I don't think the problem is that epstopdf can't locate the EPS files, as the absolute paths in the log file seem fine.

What else could be the issue here?

I'm using TexLive version 2015 on Windows 8.1.

EDIT: A full minimal example:

\documentclass[journal]{IEEEtran}

\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{cite}
\usepackage{epstopdf}
\graphicspath{{D:/git/report/images/}}


\begin{document}


\begin{figure}[!t]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=2.5in]{setup_3d.eps}
\caption{A schematic drawing.}
\label{fig:overview_3d}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

Answer 1

I am not an expert. However, I had this issue as well and when I changed the editor from TexStudio to TeXshop the problem no-longer existed and the eps pictures were converted to pdf.

I thought this might help you.

Answer 2

I solved this problem:

Step 1: Remove the entire MikTeX exists on your computer using the Control Panel, after removing deleted folder named MikTeX in C:\ Program files (x86 ) to avoid errors when resetting because the same name folder (uninstall is complete without restarting the computer)

Step 2: Reinstall the MikTeX below (no need to install the program editor as texstudio, Texmaker, viettex, ...), this error is due to foundation MikTeX

MikTeX file download link: click here

After downloading, you unzip. Installation file named setup-2.8.3553.exe in directory MikTeX /setup

Step 3: Install the file setup-2.8.3553.exe as usual, remember to tick select Complete MikTeX to install the full version.

Note when using:

Note 1: The order declaring the package ordered to order from top to bottom as follows:

\ usepackage {graphicx}

\ usepackage {epstopdf}

\ usepackage {subfigure}

Note 2: Before running TeX files, please ensure that you have deleted the corrupted PDF files are output from run error before (just leave a tail .eps image file)
