EPS images
Hello. I have been told to use EPS images in my LaTeX document. But, when I look back to the directory of my LaTeX document after compiling, I observe that all the EPS images were converted to PDF and named as image-eps-converted-to.pdf. Why is it so? Why can't the EPS images directly be included? Why does it get copied into PDF format while compiling the document?
NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Re: EPS images
PdfLaTeX simply cannot work with eps-figures. In the backround, all files are converted to pdf, both are vector formats and there is no loss in quality.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Re: EPS images
Then what should I do to directly include EPS images? I have been told to use EPS only.

May i ask why?
You can compile in classical mode and output a dvi (
Or use XeLaTeX, which can use eps-figures.

latex instead of pdflatex). This dvi can be converted to ps and to pdf. Or use XeLaTeX, which can use eps-figures.
