Well known problem with imagemagick configuration. Bunch of distros 
fear potential ghostscript vulnerabilities and banned eps/pdf conversions
altogether. The juicy part is that if you are not root, you can't override
this setting as a normal user. 

If you are root find somewhere in your /etc/ imagemagick configs and
delete/comment in policy.xml these entries:
<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PS" />
<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PS2" />
<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PS3" />
<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="EPS" />
<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PDF" />
<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="XPS" />
