EpsLab is the successor of BinEps: its main purpose is to add a preview image
to a regular Encapsulated PostScript file ('.epsf'); it can also convert some
single-page PostScript files to EPS files (with a preview image).
The preview image can be created by EpsLab in one of three formats:
- TIFF image (MS-DOS binary EPS format)
- TIFF compressed image (also MS-DOS binary EPS format)
- ASCII image (EPSI file format)
As an alternative the user can provide a file containing the preview image in
either TIFF format o Windows MetaFile format.
Since EpsLab is the successor of BinEps, here is what's new
compared to BinEps:
- Full font-sensitive gui.
- Full localization.
- Ability to create a crossbox preview.
- Ability to render a full preview using 'post.library'.
- Ability to create a compressed or uncompressed TIFF preview.
- Ability to create an ASCII preview (EPSI file format).
- Automatic conversion of some single-page PostScript to EPSF, with bounding
box recalculation.
- Selectable density for the preview image.
- Selectable page size for PostScript to EPSF conversion.
