A correct +Bounding Box is calculated for the EPS files and some +PostScript command sequences that can produce errorneous +results on printers are filtered. The input is cropped to +include just the image contained in the PostScript file. The +EPS files can then be included into TeX documents. Other +programs like ps2epsi (a script distributed with ghostscript) +don't always calculate the correct bounding box (because the +values are put on the PostScript stack which may get corrupted +by bad PostScript code) or they round it off, resulting in +clipping the image. Therefore ps2eps uses a resolution of 144 +dpi to get the correct bounding box. |
