+Epspdftk is a GUI ps/eps/pdf converter. Epspdf, its command-line
+backend, can be used by itself.
+
+For Windows MiKTeX users, the epspdf-setup package installs a
+version of epspdftk which requires no additional software beyond
+MiKTeX. This is due to an embedded tclkit Tcl/Tk runtime. It
+replaces the standard epspdf package.
+
+TeX Live already includes a tclkit runtime for Windows, so there is
+less reason to install the epspdf-setup package.
+
+The epspdf package itself is licensed under GPL version 2.
+The Tcl/Tk runtime is covered by a variety of free licenses.
+
+The files comprising the program, including the license files, can
+be unpacked without installing with a command
+ 7z x epspdf.x.x.x.exe
+Replace the x characters with the appropriate digits.
