NAME

e2pall - convert all EPS files in a LaTeX document to PDF

SYNOPSIS

e2pall TEXFILE

DESCRIPTION

e2pall searches through TEXFILE for \includegraphics commands to find the base names of image files. When it finds one, e2pall runs *epstopdf*(1) to create a PDF file from the EPS file.

e2pall will check to be sure that an existing PDF file is up-to-date with the EPS file, and will not run *epstopdf*(1) if the PDF file is newer than the EPS file.

BUGS

  • :: Seems to be broken
  • :: Cannot handle \input{/filename/} or \includegraphics{/filename/} split over more than one line
  • :: Must be run from same directory as the LaTeX file
  • :: Does not look down $TEXINPUTS
  • :: Cannot handle documents that use \include commands
  • :: Assumes all files included with \includegraphics are EPS files

SEE ALSO
