Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ dimension too large in EPS file

[antonio_ing]

hi guys

i have some problems with an EPS file that everytime gave me the error

dimension too large in \includegraphics{xxx.eps}

if i export in eps by means of GIMP it is ok, so the problem is the eps file or the packages i'm using. Actually i have:
\usepackage[dvips]{epsfig}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{graphics}
\usepackage{psfrag}
\usepackage{booktabs}
\usepackage{rotating}
here there is my image

thanks for every advise

Build a minimal working example (MWE). Use only the graphicx package without any driver option like dvips or pdftex. They are unnecessary because the package loads the right driver on its own. Abandon the packages epsfig (obsolete) and graphics (loaded by graphicx). Attach the concerned image file to your next post.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Here there is the image. Other EPS files worked perfectly, but this is full of symbols. I hope you can find a way without loosing too much quality

If you look at the EPS, you'll find that the Bounding Box is indeed enormous: no wonder TeX is in trouble. You could correct this, but it would mean hand-editing everything to bring it to a sensible scale. Either export it correctly in the first place, or perhaps use pgfplots to plot the data directly in LaTeX.
