How to convert PS to EPS
- Add your .PS file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .EPS in a few seconds.
- Download your new .EPS file.
What to expect
- EPS holds exactly one figure - multi-page
.psfiles cannot become a single.eps; extract the page you need first using Ghostscript's-dFirstPageand-dLastPageflags. - If the embedded EPS has unwanted whitespace, re-run
ps2eps -Bto compute a tight bounding box from actual ink rather than the declared page size. - EPS is a legacy format; if your target application accepts PDF, converting with
ps2pdfis simpler and more widely supported.
Frequently asked questions
Will vectors and text stay sharp after conversion?
Yes - PS-to-EPS encapsulation does not rasterize anything. Drawing commands remain as PostScript inside the EPS wrapper, so the result is fully scalable.
Can I convert a multi-page PS to separate EPS files?
Yes, with Ghostscript: use
-dFirstPage=N -dLastPage=N -sDEVICE=eps2write for each page, producing one .eps per run.Why does my EPS show the wrong size in InDesign or LaTeX?
The BoundingBox is incorrect - often because the
.ps was generated with a full letter or A4 page size. Run ps2eps -B to compute a tight box from the actual content.Is there any quality loss in the conversion?
No - the converter wraps the existing PostScript in an EPS structure without re-encoding or rasterizing the content.
