I want to convert a EPS figure to a PDF figure with the same width and height.
The following command:
gswin32 -dSAFER -dNOPLATFONTS -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH \
-sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 \
-dPDFSETTINGS=/printer -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dMaxSubsetPct=100 \
-dSubsetFonts=true -dEmbedAllFonts=true -sOutputFile="test.pdf" \
-f "test.eps"
only produces a PDF file with the page size of a letter.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Here is the test EPS file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45318932/test.eps

To make KenS' answer more explicit, using the test.eps
sample file you linked to... the following command will suffice to do what you want:
gswin32 \
-sDEVICE=pdfwrite \
-dPDFSETTINGS=/printer \
-dEPSCrop \
-o test.pdf \
test.eps
The -o test.pdf
is (for not too ancient versions of Ghostscript!) shorthand for -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sOutputFile=test.pdf
.
Your test.eps
uses a font named /SHZENL+Tahoma_00
. Ghostscript will automatically embed this font, and it will be a subset by default (the prefix SHZENL
may change in the PDF, though).
Here is a screenshot from the page the command from your question created. That page is 612 x 792 pts
(letter size):
Here is the screenshot from the page the command given in my answer created. Its page size is 360 x 216 pts

EPS files cannot contain a media size request. In the absence of any media size request Ghostscript uses the default.
However.....
From the documentation:
http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.15/Use.htm#EPS_parameters
-dEPSCrop
:
Crop an EPS file to the bounding box. This is useful when converting an EPS file to a bitmap.
