[Tex/LaTex] how to rotate .eps file

epsrotating

I have a problem with rotation of .eps files for my dissertation. Initially, I thought it was a problem during conversion of .pdf to .eps. I tried the conversion in several ways: using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro in Windows, in Linux the following commands: inkscape input.pdf --export-eps=output.eps and pdftops -eps file.pdf. All methods give good .eps files, but when I try to rotate (90 degree rotation) them in Latex, nothing works.
I used \includegraphics[width=6.0 in,angle=90], also \special{ps: gsave -90 rotate}\......\special{ps: grestore }, and some other methods but with no luck.
Any solutions (Windows, Linux, Mac) will be appreciated.

Make sure you have loaded the graphicx package not graphics then

\includegraphics[width=6.0in,angle=90]{file}

should work.

Note if it is an EPS file then you need latex (and it may not show rotated in a dvi previewer) if you are using pdflatex you should convert the EPS to pdf first (or if I read your question correctly, just use the original pdf not the EPS).

[Tex/LaTex] Rotate eps image without the whole page

the -dAutoRotatePages=/None works only on images which are rotated itself, the reason why it should work for the whole document. However you can also try:

\begin{figure}[hbt]
  \centering
  \special{ps: gsave -90 rotate }
  \includegraphics[width=1\textwidth]{simulink_model.eps}
  \special{ps: grestore }
  \caption{A Simulink Model}
\end{figure}

[Tex/LaTex] .eps file not generated using epslatex

Your gnuplot script has many flaws:

you can use only one terminal, so the set term postscript lines should be removed;
avoid using underscores in your files, because they will cause problems;
the multiplot mode should be closed and the output should be reset, otherwise the output file won't be closed;
as pointed out by Christoph, the set origins and set sizes are useless;
you have to wrap dollar signs around all labels, otherwise ^ will throw errors.

This is a revised version of your gnuplot script:

reset
set terminal epslatex color colortext
set output "pbspI=6.tex"

set style data lines
set multiplot
set log

set xlabel "$t$"
set ylabel '$P_\ell(t)-P_\ell(\infty)$'

set format y  '$10^{%L}$'
set format x  '$10^{%L}$'

set xr [0.1:10000]
set yr [0.000001:1.2] 

plot 'sp_I=6.out' u 1:2 w l title '$\ell=6,N=20$' lc 1 lw 2, \
     1800/x**1.5 lw 2 title '$t^{-1.5}$', \
     1.7/x**0.5 lw 2 title '$t^{-0.5}$'
unset multiplot
set output

This is the .tex file in which the picture will be included:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
  \centering
  \input{pbspI=6.tex}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
