  • @music2myear That question asks about converting ".PDF to .eps". That'snot what the OP is asking.

I assume you are using a very recent version of Ghostscript. It so, run this command:



gs -o output-%00d.eps -sDEVICE=eps2write input.ps


For more ancient versions, use



gs -o output-%00d.eps -sDEVICE=epswrite input.ps


Note that EPS by design is and may only be single-page document format.



So if your single file input.ps consists of multiple pages, your output will consist of multiple EPS files ("images") which are named output-001.eps, output-002.eps, etc.
