e2pall (1) - Linux Manuals

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
