[texhax] error message: overfull box

[Marion Wenty]

hello,

after i tried what you suggested, susan, it stoped working again but i
found the solution for not being able to include an eps-file into my latex
document:

i had produced a graphic in R and had saved it as an eps-file. The problem
was that the program R was open, once i closed it, everything worked!

maybe this will help someone who comes accross the same problem in the
future.
