<div>A few days ago, I posted this silly puzzle:<br>
<br>
I'm writing a paper, swing.tex. I drew a nice illustration in Illustrator, swing.eps, converted it with TeXShop to pdf. It is included in the tex file with
<br>
<br>
\begin{figure}[htb]<br>
\centerline{\includegraphics[scale = .9]{swing}}<br>
\caption{Illustrating a swing}\label{F:swingillustration}<br>
%Figure~\ref{F:swingillustration}<br>
\end{figure}<br>
<br>
Cannot typeset the file. Silly puzle: why?<br>
<br>
To my surprise, nobody had the obvious answer. So now I am giving it away with the log file:<br>
<br>
(/usr/local/texlive/2019/texmf-dist/tex/latex/microtype/mt-euf.cfg) [1{/usr/loc<br>

Syntax Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary<br>

Does this help?<br>
