Try it without the package epstopdf, that means, disable \usepackage{epstopdf} by commenting it out with a % sign at the beginning of it's line. Does that change something?

Your logfile showed that you are using the book class. So it would be possible by redefining \@makechapterhead. Insert this into your preamble:

Code: Select all

\makeatletter
\renewcommand*\@makechapterhead[1]{%
  \vspace*{10\p@}%  adjust this value
  {\parindent \z@ \raggedright \normalfont
    \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >\m@ne
      \if@mainmatter
        \huge\bfseries \@chapapp\space \thechapter
        \par\nobreak
        \vskip 20\p@
      \fi
    \fi
    \interlinepenalty\@M
    \Huge \bfseries #1\par\nobreak
    \vskip 40\p@
  }}
\makeatother
The third line containes the value of the space obove, originally it was 50\p@.
I am using a newer version of book.cls, but that may work for you too.

You may use the geometry package for page layout and margins, see manual. A lot of documentation inside, but with examples.
