Hopefully, my problem would be resolved. The strange thing is that my colleagues tried the same files, and the figure just appears at the right place. So I guess the problem might be due to the setup of my computer. Thanks very much for your attention.

I also found some strange characters at the start of the eps file you sent and ghostscript couldn't do the eps->pdf conversion by itself for the figure, using pdflatex, create the pdf file when using latex.

Howdy,

As I said before, either the implementation for graphics inclusion in the supplied class is wrong or there is a problem with the eps file. I am able to use Preview or even TGeXShop to do the conversion to pdf but then the class file still tries to do the eps file and fails with many lines of ``NON-PDF Specials''.

Good Luck,
