I tried inserting a couple of .eps images in my latex file. After compliling, the .dvi produced is perfect. But when I use dvipdfm to convert to pdf, the left boundary of all the images disappear. Since all my images are plots, the left boundary is absolutely crucial. Somebody please help me sort out this prolem.

I am using Miktex 2.7 and please dont tell me to use anything else because my company wont allow that.

Hi,

try converting the .dvi file to a .ps file first and then converting this .ps file to the pdf format.

To translate the suggestion made by gmedina you need Ghostscript installed on your machine. A method that also needs that is to convert the EPS files to PDF by either using the command line tool epstopdf or convert them "on the fly" with the epstopdf package. You then could benefit from advantages of compiling with pdflatex.

Best regards and welcome to the board
