    4: bugfix by Pascal Perichon, Pascal.Perichon@u-bourgogne.fr
    5: 
    6: It converts an EPS file to an encapsulated PDF File and is written
    7: based on the perl script 'epstopdf' by Sebastian Rahtz on
    8: http://tug.org/applications/pdftex/epstopdf.
    9: It works like the perl script without 'perl' but requires 'Ghostscript'.
   10: The accompanied Makefile can be used to automate the update of all eps/pdf
   11: files in a directory. Just put it in the directory where your eps files
   12: are and type 'make' from the command line (you will need a version of
   13: GNU-make).
   14: 
   15: This program invokes 'gswin32c' and the path including 'gswin32c'
   16: should be included to the environment variable 'PATH'.
   17: 'gswin32c' should know, where to find its initialization files
   18: and fonts, using an registry entry (Windows) or an environment variable.
   19: 
   20: Using a different output device, it is also possible to convert eps
   21: files to bitmaps (e.g. -sDEVICE=bmpmono).
