NAME

pstoepsi - convert PostScript to encapsulated PostScript with bitmap

SYNOPSIS

pstoepsi [-gs|-news] [-strip] [-2x] [-noprev] [-debug] file.ps file.epsi

DESCRIPTION

pstoepsi will convert an arbitrary PostScript image to an encapsulated PostScript image with a bitmap, suitable for incorporation into FrameMaker, LaTeX, troff, etc.

Note in the USAGE line, the source PostScript file must end in a .ps extention. This is a GhostScript requirement, not mine...

This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

OPTIONS

-gs

Use ghostscript to convert to EPSI.

-news

Use Sun's X/NeWS (OpenWindows) to convert to EPSI.

-strip

Strip all %% directives from the source file -- useful when dealing with Adobe Illustrator and others who use directives incompatible with this convention.

-2x

Use 2X resolution.

-noprev

Do not include the preview bitmap.

-debug

Print debugging information.
