What I expected to happen: the command ps2epsi drawing.ps should
complete without error and produce the file drawing.epsi.
What happened instead: the command ps2epsi drawing.ps threw the error above.
The file drawing.epsi was produced. However, the file throws an error when
opened by epstopdf:-
ann019@power-kf:~/Dropbox$ epstopdf drawing.epsi
==> Warning: BoundingBox not found
Despite the error, a pdf is produced (drawing.pdf). But it cannot be
opened by evince.
All files in the chain (drawing.ps, drawing.epsi & drawing.pdf) are
attached as.
