He didn't invoke a non-existent program. **PLEASE** do not accuse
people without checking the email source or without trying to read the
message with a decent email client ;) ;) ;).

There are spaces in the original email (in the HTML version). It must
be a bug in the email client that eat up the spaces in the plain text
version (and a high artificial intelligence that added hyperlinks to a
non-existing polish domain :).

But this is a valid question. If epstopdf is not in PATH, there's a
high chance that ghostscript is not in PATH either. Does calling "gs",
"gswin", "gswin32" (I forgot the exact name) from command prompt work?
What does "echo %PATH%" return?
