- PS2EPS+ A PostScript conversion utility program for Macintosh
- ------------------------------------------------------------
-
- PS2EPS+ is a freeware Macintosh program that can generate visible pictures
- from single page PostScript files. The primary usage of this program is to
- generate Encapsulated PostScript files (EPS) from plain PostScript (PS) text
- files. Both Macintosh and Microsoft-Windows EPS files can be generated. The
- program can also save the pictures in the following formats: PICT, TIFF, PCX
- and Macintosh startup screen.
-
- The conversion of PostScript files into visible pictures is done by a
- Macintosh version of Ghostscript, a freeware (originally UNIX) program from
- the Free Software Foundation. PS2EPS+ acts as a front program for
- Ghostscript. Note however that PS2EPS+ is NOT Ghostview (for those who know
- what that is). It only accepts single page PostScript files which have a DSC
- bounding box comment.
-
- I wrote this program several years ago, but after following the Usenet news
- group comp.lang.postscript for some time and seeing many people looking for
- an utility like this, I decided to distribute it as a freeware program.
-
- Documentation is available in MS-Word and plain text format.
