Hello all,

pst-pdf manual says I can use include graphics with eps files so I try
for example:
\begin{figure}[ht]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[width=0.6\textwidth]{figures/kripke.eps}
\caption{Representation of Kripke Structure Example}
\label{fig:kripke}
\end{center}
\end{figure}

However, when pdflatex gets here:
Error: pdflatex (file figures/kripke.pdf): cannot find image file
 ==> Fatal error occurred, the output PDF file is not finished!

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Paulo Matos

Yes. Read the "Usage" section of the pst-pdf package *before* posting
here questions such as the one above.

You could take a look at the latest version of chemscheme for a
working example with instructions.

Aren't you being a bit rude? I hope a good night sleep solves that!
Anyway, I read it *before* posting, however, I didn't *understand* it.
I don't know much about bounding boxes, pages, blablabla. I just want
to include a simple image and when I *read* the manual *before*
posting, it said that EPS file were supported using includegraphics.

I had one, thanks.

And you don't need to know that to solve your problem.

Yes. And it also says *how* to do it, at the "Usage" section.

You will have to describe what you already tried - or what you did not 
understand.

As for your question:

1.) There is an pst-pdf-example.tex that is produced if you run latex on 
  the pst-pdf.ins which you can download from ctan. There you will find, 
among other code,

	\begin{postscript}
	  \includegraphics{picture.eps}
	\end{postscript}

2.)(re)read section 2.2 of the documentation with special attention to 
the last paragraph.

Part of this is, I believe, slightly confusing.  The documentation
says:

While creating the output only code from inside a pspicture or
postscript environment
is considered.

So i thought for a long time that you had to use a special environment
for using pst-pdf.  However, this is not the case, as it will
successfully handle something like:

\begin{figure}
\psfrag{something-here}
\includegraphics{an-eps-file}
\caption{An example}
\end{figure}

I assume that the statement in the documentation:

PostScript graphics files, which are passed as parameter of an
\includegraphics statement, too are included into the \PDFcontainer
file.

indicates this, but as I say the previous sentence in the manual
doesn't mention \includegraphics.

To be fair to the OP, I'm not sure that the documentation is
absolutely clear.  The last paragraph of section 2.2(c) in the
documentation starts with the sentence:

While creating the output only code from inside a pspicture or
postscript environment is considered.

Which I'd taken to mean that every \includegraphics that you wanted
processed had to be inside a pspicture or postpicture block. However,
the package will work with an \includegraphics{some-eps-file}
statement even if it is *not*  within a \begin{postscript} ...
\end{postscript} block.  Yes, that is clear when you read the example
file fully, but I'm not sure that it is as obvious as it could be.
