                      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).
                     22:
