did some experimenting. My eps-figure had in the header %%BoundingBox: -38 -34 265 146 I used twocolumn textstyle and tried out 2 different figures, one spanning the columns one restricted to one column restricted to one column: if I load figure it shows 0/0 180/215 (note the difference to above) without bounding box setting and read from file setting: figure too low without bounding box setting, but with read from file setting: figure too high with bounding box setting, but without read from file setting: figure too low with bounding box setting and with read from file setting: figure placed ok spanning the columns without bounding box setting and read from file setting: figure too low and shifted to the right without bounding box setting, but with read from file setting: figure shifted to the right with bounding box setting, but without read from file setting: figure too high with bounding box setting and with read from file setting: figure placed ok so apparently I have to set both, bounding box setting and read from file setting.
