.TH PS2PS 1 "4 April 2019" 9.27 "Ghostscript Tools" \" -*- nroff -*-
.SH NAME
ps2ps, eps2eps \- Ghostscript PostScript "distiller"
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBps2ps\fR [ \fIoptions\fR ] \fIinput output.ps\fR
.br
\fBeps2eps\fR [ \fIoptions\fR ] \fIinput output.eps\fR
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBps2ps\fR uses \fIgs\fR(1) to convert \fBPostScript\fR(tm) or \fBPDF\fR(tm) file
"input" to simpler, normalized and (usually) faster PostScript in
"output.ps".  The output is level 2 DSC 3.0 conforming PostScript.
.PP
\fBeps2eps\fR 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.
.PP
Both accept any general Ghostscript command line options, and
options specific to the ps2write and eps2write devices.
.SH FILES
Run "\fBgs -h\fR" to find the location of Ghostscript documentation on your
system, from which you can get more details.
