It would be interesting to see an example of how this works.
The Stata Journal website says: " For compatibility
with sjlatex and TeXShop, you must enable the
Typeset -> TeX and Ghostscript mode." Yet you claim that
this is not neccessary and that pdflatex works directly with eps
figures if epsfig is invoked.
I have written this minimal example:
documentclass{article}
\usepackage{epsfig}
\begin{document}
\epsfig{file=vys}
\end{document}
latex and dvips works ok on this. Pdflatex fails
miserably. Could you confirm that a similar
example works from the command prompt with
pdflatex at your machine (and that TeXShop
does not use ghostscript in the background)?
Anyway, as mentioned earlier, the latex version
of Ghostscript solved my problems.
Best regards,
Erik.
