Summary : Produce Encapsulated PostScript from PostScript
URL : http://tug.org/texlive/
License : GPL+
Description : 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. Included in the distribution
: is the bbox program, an application to produce Bounding Box values
: for rawppm or rawpbm format files.
