NAME

epf2png - convert EPS files to PNG, JPG or GIF images

SYNOPSIS

    eps2png [ options ] files ...
    eps2gif [ options ] files ...
    eps2jpg [ options ] files ...

DESCRIPTION

Converts files from EPS format (Encapsulated PostScript) to some popular image formats.

If installed as eps2png (the default), it produces PNG images by default. Likewise, eps2gif defaults to GIF images and eps2jpg defaults to JPG. Note that the normal installation procedure will only install eps2png.

It uses GhostScript to produce the images. Since modern GhostScript programs do not support GIF anymore, GIF images are produced via the Portable PixMap converters (PBM-package).
