Accepted input file formats are: PS (PostScript), EPS, +PDF, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, PNM, BMP, GIF, LBM, XPM, PCX, TGA. Accepted output +formats are: EPS, PCL5, PDF, PDF1, PBM, PGM, PPM, PS, markedEPS, markedPS, +PNG, XWD, BMP, TIFF, JPEG, GIF, XPM. a2ping delegates the low-level +work to Ghostscript (GS), pdftops and sam2p. a2ping fixes many glitches +during the EPS to EPS conversion, so its output is often more compatible +and better embeddable than its input. + +Installation: copy the file a2ping.pl to a2ping on your $PATH. + +__END__ |
