Package texlive-ps2eps
Produce Encapsulated PostScript from PostScript
Produce Encapsulated PostScript Files (EPS/EPSF) from a one-page PostScript
document, or any PostScript document. A correct Bounding Box is calculated for
the EPS files and some PostScript command sequences that can produce erroneous
results on printers are filtered. The input is cropped to include just the
image contained in the PostScript file. The EPS files can then be included into
TeX documents. Other programs like ps2epsi (a script distributed with
ghostscript) don't always calculate the correct bounding box (because the
values are put on the PostScript stack which may get corrupted by bad
PostScript code) or they round it off, resulting in clipping the image.
Therefore ps2eps uses a resolution of 144 dpi to get the correct bounding box.
The bundle includes binaries for Linux, Solaris, Digital Unix or Windows
2000/9x/NT; for other platforms, the user needs perl, ghostscript and an ANSI-C
compiler. Included in the distribution is the bbox program, an application to
produce Bounding Box values for rawppm or rawpbm format files.
