A normal Encapsulated PostScript header is something like:

%!PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-1.2
%%Title: Outline specification of the CWI logo anno 1991
%%Creator: Jan van der Steen (CST)
%%Creationdate: May 21 1991
%%BoundingBox: 7 9 95 121
%%EndComments

From these lines the first one ("%!PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-1.2") is
essential to Frame. Without this line it doesn't recognise
the imported file being Encapsulated PostScript.
The 5th ("%%BoundingBox: 7 9 95 121") is essential for
Encapsulated PostScript files in general, specifying the
pyhisical size of the object in default user space.
