PDF to EPS Conversion

📅 2011-Oct-14 ⬩ ✍️ Ashwin Nanjappa ⬩ 🏷️ eps, pdf, xpdf ⬩ 📚 Archive

Some vector tools can export figures only to the PDF format. If you need the figures in the EPS format, then one possible option for the PDF-to-EPS conversion is pdftops. This tool ships with the Xpdf package.

To convert a PDF to EPS use the -eps parameter:

$ pdftops -eps Foo.pdf

Xpdf can be downloaded separately (here) or as a part of the GNUWin32 universe (here).

Tried with: XPDF 2.03
