I am using a similar solution but with convert (imagemagick)
I just converted all .pdf files via a script to .eps files directly
with this script


Yes, that can work. But, you will suffer a quality loss. Imagemagick only works with bitmaps and your figure was likely vectorial.

How do you create those figures? Probably the program you used let you create eps (or other compatible formats like xfig) directly.



So the problem is related somhow to the pdf files....
This is as far as I can get.
I will give you all the pdf files you need if you want to investigate
further.
I think it wuold be better to catch this bug as I also remember I had
already found it a long time ago with ps files....


But, probably it isn't a bug. The difference is (I think) that PDF and PS are page formats. You're triying to insert a page inside a page and that it's quite confusing. EPS is an encapsulated postscript and it doesn't have any information about the page, it's just a figure.

You are right, I will use eps since now from the beginning.
The fact is that the plots are produced with *gnuplot on os X *and pdf is the native format for graphics on os X.
And also the default if you want to use pdflatex.....
anyway I will switch back to eps for what concerning the gnuplot output since it seems that as Henri pointed out is a problem of the pdf dialect gnuplot produces.
