NAME
ps2ps, eps2eps - Ghostscript PostScript "distiller"
SYNOPSIS
ps2ps [ options ] input output.ps
eps2eps [ options ] input output.eps
DESCRIPTION
ps2ps uses gs(1) to convert PostScript(tm) or PDF(tm) file "input" to
simpler, normalized and (usually) faster PostScript in "output.ps".
The output is level 2 DSC 3.0 conforming PostScript.
eps2eps performs the equivalent optimization, creating Encapsulated
PostScript (EPS) files. NB, despite the name, the input need not be an
EPS file, PostScript or indeed PDF files are equally acceptable.
Both accept any general Ghostscript command line options, and options
specific to the ps2write and eps2write devices.
FILES
Run "gs -h" to find the location of Ghostscript documentation on your
system, from which you can get more details.
