Hi Bill,

I went to the epstopdf-sys.cfg file and commented the last two lines (before the \endinput

> \ProvidesFile{epstopdf-sys.cfg}%
>   [2009/10/26 v1.1 Configuration of epstopdf for TeX Live]%
> %\epstopdfsetup{%

> % tif->png
> %\epstopdfDeclareGraphicsRule{.tif}{png}{.png}{convert #1 \OutputFile}
> %\PrependGraphicsExtensions{.tif}
> \endinput



and reenabled loadind package epstopdf. I think I added said lines sometime in 2009 and forgot about them!

It works now.

Thank you all.

Cheers
George
