this is not the error, but rather an information.

This is the error. What does mytest.tex contain?

With your above mentioned example I do not get any error, for a 
standalone image:

set terminal epslatex size 3.5,2.62 color standalone
set output 'simple1.tex'

set key inside left top vertical Right noreverse enhanced autotitles box 
linetype -1 linewidth 1.000
set samples 50, 50
plot [-10:10] sin(x),atan(x),cos(atan(x))

And then compiling with
latex simple1.tex && dvips simple1.dvi && ps2pdf simple1.ps

Note, that I changed the output name to 'simple1.tex', the extra point 
before '1' makes trouble.
