NAME
epstopdf - convert an EPS file to PDF
SYNOPSIS
epstopdf [options] epsfile
DESCRIPTION
epstopdf transforms the Encapsulated PostScript file
epsfile so that it is guaranteed to start at the 0,0 coordinate,
and it sets a page size exactly corresponding to the BoundingBox.
This means that when Ghostscript renders it, the result needs no
cropping, and the PDF MediaBox is correct. The result is piped to
Ghostscript and a PDF version written.
If the bounding box is not right, of course, you have problems...
OPTIONS
"--outfile=file"
write result to file instead of standard output.
"--[no]filter"
read standard input (default: --nofilter).
"--[no]gs"
run ghostscript (default: --gs).
"--[no]compress"
use compression (default: --compress).
"--[no]hires"
scan HiresBoundingBox (default: --nohires).
"--[no]exact"
scan ExactBoundingBox (default: --noexact).
"--[no]debug"
debug informations (default: --nodebug).
"--help
print usage
EXAMPLE
Examples for producing "test.pdf":
epstopdf test.eps
produce postscript | epstopdf --filter >test.pdf
produce postscript | epstopdf -f -d -o=test.pdf
Example: look for HiresBoundingBox and produce corrected PostScript:
epstopdf -d --nogs -hires test.ps>testcorr.ps
BUGS
The only thing I have not allowed for is the case of
"%%BoundingBox: (atend)", which is more complicated.
