.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
While \fBpdflatex\fR has a number of nice features, its primary
shortcoming relative to standard \fBlatex\fR+\fBdvips\fR is that it is
unable to read ordinary Encapsulated PostScript (\s-1EPS\s0) files, the most
common graphics format in the LaTeX world.  \fBpdflatex\fR can read only
the following types of graphics files:
.IP "\s-1PDF\s0" 4
.IX Item "PDF"
Most people who use \fBpdflatex\fR convert their documents to \s-1PDF\s0 using a
utility such as \fBepstopdf\fR.  This works well and preserves the vector
nature of the original \s-1EPS\s0.  Unfortunately, \fBdvips\fR does not read
\&\s-1PDF\s0, so two versions of the graphic must be maintained if the document
is to be processed with both \fBlatex\fR+\fBdvips\fR and \fBpdflatex\fR.
.IP "\s-1PNG\s0" 4
.IX Item "PNG"
\&\s-1PNG\s0 is a bitmap format and therefore scales poorly.  Also, \fBdvips\fR
does not read \s-1PNG\s0, so two versions of the graphic must be maintained
if the document is to be processed with both \fBlatex\fR+\fBdvips\fR and
\&\fBpdflatex\fR.
.IP "\s-1JPEG\s0" 4
.IX Item "JPEG"
\&\s-1JPEG\s0 is a bitmap format and therefore scales poorly.  Also, \fBdvips\fR
does not read \s-1JPEG\s0, so two versions of the graphic must be maintained
if the document is to be processed with both \fBlatex\fR+\fBdvips\fR and
\&\fBpdflatex\fR.
.IP "\s-1MPS\s0" 4
.IX Item "MPS"
This is probably the least-used \fBpdflatex\fR\-compatible graphics
format.  \s-1MPS\s0 is actually a stylized version of \s-1EPS\s0 that MetaPost
outputs.  Like \s-1PDF\s0, \s-1MPS\s0 is a vector format and remains as such when
imported into a \fBpdflatex\fR document.  Also like \s-1PDF\s0, \fBdvips\fR does
not read \s-1MPS\s0, so two versions of the graphic must be maintained if the
document is to be processed with both \fBlatex\fR+\fBdvips\fR and
\&\fBpdflatex\fR.
.PP
The insight behind \fBpurifyeps\fR is that there are only a few, small
differences between \s-1MPS\s0 and \s-1EPS\s0 and that a file can be converted into
a format that matches both the \s-1MPS\s0 and \s-1EPS\s0 specifications
simultaneously.  \fBpurifyeps\fR inputs an \s-1EPS\s0 file, uses \fBpstoedit\fR's
\&\f(CW\*(C`mpost\*(C'\fR filter to convert the file to MetaPost (\fI.mp\fR), runs
\&\fBmpost\fR on the file to convert it to \s-1MPS\s0, and finally performs some
touchups on the result to convert the file back to \s-1EPS\s0, while
preserving its ability to be parsed by \fBpdflatex\fR.

specifies the section [default: \f(CW1\fR (User Commands)].  \fIfilename\fR
defaults to \fIpurifyeps.1\fR or an analogous filename if \fIsection\fR is
specified.
.IP "\fB\-\-make\-ps\-man\fR [=\fIfilename\fR]] [\fB\-\-section\fR=\fIsection\fR]" 4

documentation.  The documentation is formatted like a Unix man page.
\&\fIsection\fR specifies the section [default: \f(CW1\fR (User Commands)].
\&\fIfilename\fR defaults to \fIpurifyeps.ps\fR.
.PP
In normal operation (i.e., when not run with \f(CW\*(C`\-\-help\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\-\-make\-man\*(C'\fR,
or \f(CW\*(C`\-\-make\-ps\-man\*(C'\fR), \fBpurifyeps\fR takes the name of an input file and
output file.  The same filename can safely be used for both files.  If
the output filename is omitted, output will go to the standard output
device.  If the input filename is omitted, \fBpurifyeps\fR will read from
the standard input device.

\&\*(L"\s-1NOTES\s0\*(R" for a description of this file's contents.
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
Error reporting could definitely stand to be improved.  Error messages
produced by \fBpstoedit\fR and \fBmpost\fR are sometimes silently ignored.
Also, errors sometimes cause \fBpurifyeps\fR to leave temporary files
(\fIpurifyeps\-\fR\fI#####\fR) lying around.
.PP
\&\fBpurifyeps\fR is subject to all of the limitations that affect
\&\fBpstoedit\fR and especially the \f(CW\*(C`mpost\*(C'\fR backend to \fBpstoedit\fR.  As a
result, \fBpurifyeps\fR ignores certain PostScript constructs, such as
nonuniformly scaled text.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
\&\fBpurifyeps\fR needs a file that tells it how to map from TeX font names
to PostScript font names.  This file must contain two, space-separated
columns.  The first lists a PostScript font name, and the second lists
the TeX equivalent.  Blank lines and lines that start with \f(CW\*(C`%\*(C'\fR are
ignored.  The following is a sample \fI.fmp\fR file:
.PP
.Vb 10
\&    % This is a sample font map for purifyeps.
\&    Times\-Bold                           ptmb
\&    Times\-Italic                         ptmri
\&    Times\-Roman                          ptmr
\&    Helvetica                            phvr

\&    Courier\-Oblique                      pcrro
.Ve
.PP
Note that this is exactly the same format that \fBpstoedit\fR uses.  By
default, \fBpurifyeps\fR looks in the current directory for a font map
called \fImpost.fmp\fR.  The \f(CW\*(C`\-\-fontmap\*(C'\fR command-line option tells
\&\fBpurifyeps\fR to use a different font map, which will typically be the
\&\fImpost.fmp\fR file that comes with \fBpstoedit\fR.
.PP
Once you create purified \s-1EPS\s0 files with \fBpurifyeps\fR, you need to
instruct \fBpdflatex\fR to use them.  The pdfLaTeX configuration of the
\&\f(CW\*(C`graphics\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`graphicx\*(C'\fR packages (\fIpdftex.def\fR) normally ignores
\&\fI.eps\fR files.  Putting the following LaTeX code in your document's
preamble tells \fBpdflatex\fR that all \fI.eps\fR files are in \s-1MPS\s0 format:
.PP
.Vb 9
\&    % Tell pdfLaTeX that all .eps files were produced by MetaPost.
