PSTOEPSI(1)						      General Commands Manual						       PSTOEPSI(1)

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	incompati-
	      ble with this convention.

       -2x    Use 2X resolution.

       -noprev
	      Do not include the preview bitmap.

       -debug Print debugging information.

NAME

       pbmtoepsi - convert a portable bitmap into an encapsulated PostScript style preview bitmap

SYNOPSIS

       pbmtoepsi [-bbonly] [pbmfile]

DESCRIPTION

       Reads  a  portable  bitmap as input.  Produce an encapsulated Postscript style bitmap as output. The output is not a stand alone postscript
       file, it is only a preview bitmap, which can be included in an encapsulated PostScript file.  Note that there is no epsitopbm tool  -  this
       transformation is one way.

       This utility is a part of the pstoepsi tool by Doug Crabill (dgc@cs.purdue.edu).

OPTIONS

       -bbonly
              Only create a boundary box, don't fill it with the image.
