+.SH NAME
+epstopdf, repstopdf \- convert an EPS file to PDF
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBepstopdf\fP [\fIoptions\fP] [\fIepsfile\fP]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBepstopdf\fP transforms the Encapsulated PostScript file \fIepsfile\fP
+(or standard input) so that it is guaranteed to start at the 0,0
+coordinate, and it sets a page size exactly corresponding to the
+BoundingBox. This means that when Ghostscript renders it, the result
+needs no cropping, and the PDF MediaBox is correct. By default, the
+result is piped to Ghostscript and a PDF version written.
+.P
+If the bounding box is not right, of course, there are problems.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.IP "\fB--outfile\fP=\fIfile\fP"
+write result to \fIfile\fP. If this option is not given, and
+\fB--nogs\fP or \fB--filter\fP is specified, write to standard output;
+otherwise, the default is to construct the output file name by replacing
+any extension in the input file with \fI.pdf\fP.
+.IP "\fB--\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBcompress\fP"
+use compression (default: on).
+.IP "\fB--\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBdebug\fP"
+write debugging info (default: off).
+.IP "\fB--\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBembed\fP"
+embed fonts (default: on).
+.IP "\fB--\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBexact\fP"
+scan ExactBoundingBox (default: off).
+.IP "\fB--\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBfilter\fP"
+read standard input and (unless \fB--outfile\fP is given) write standard
+output(default: off).
+.IP "\fB--\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBgs\fP"
+run Ghostscript (default: on). With \fB--nogs\fP, output (to standard
+output by default) the PostScript that would normally be converted; that
+is, the input PostScript as modified by \fBepstopdf\fP.
+.IP "\fB--\fP[\fBno\fP]\fBhires\fP"
+scan HiresBoundingBox (default: off).
+.IP "\fB--gscmd\fP=\fIval\fP"
+pipe output to \fIval\fP (default: [\fBgswin32c\fP on Windows, else \fBgs\fP])
+.IP "\fB--res\fP=\fIdpi\fP"
+set image resolution (default: [use gs default])
+.IP "\fB--autorotate\fP=\fIval\fP"
+set AutoRotatePages (default: None); recognized \fIval\fP choices:
+None, All, PageByPage. For EPS files, PageByPage is equivalent to All.
+.IP "\fB--restricted\fP=\fIval\fP"
+turn on restricted mode (default: [on for repstopdf, else off]);
+this forbids the use of \fB--gscmd\fP and imposes restrictions on the input and
+output file names according to the values of openin_any and openout_any (see
+the Web2c manual, http://tug.org/web2c).
+.IP "\fB--help\fP
+display help message and exit
+.IP "\fB--version\fP
+display version information and exit
+.SH EXAMPLES
+Examples which produce "test.pdf":
+.nf
+epstopdf test.eps
+produce postscript | epstopdf --filter >test.pdf
+produce postscript | epstopdf -f -d -o=test.pdf
+.fi
+Example: look for HiresBoundingBox and produce corrected PostScript:
+.nf
+epstopdf -d --nogs --hires test.ps >testcorr.ps
+.fi
+.SH BUGS
+The case of "%%BoundingBox: (atend)" when input is not seekable (e.g.,
+from a pipe) is not supported.
+.PP
+Report bugs in the program or this man page to tex-k@tug.org. When
+reporting bugs, please include an input file and the command line
+options specified, so the problem can be reproduced.
