"error in EPS file"?  The default configuration is not supposed to
generate EPS files at all.  What do you mean with "you get"?  Where do
you get?  Is there a reason you don't use the bug reporting command
M-x preview-report-bug RET mentioned about everywhere in the
documentation which would tell us about your settings?
What is the output in the run buffer (when typing C-c C-l)?  What is
the appearance on the screen?
