Karl Berry submitted an update to the

epstopdf

package.

Version number: 2.34 2024-04-29
License type: other-free

Summary description: Convert EPS to PDF using Ghostscript

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

epstopdf 2.34 tries to support Msys, Cygwin, and native Windows appropriately,
also detecting the TeX Live-provided gs for Windows. Thanks to John Collins for
the patch, and Pablo Gonzalez and Ken Brown for testing.

Also, more debugging output is written if the first argument is exactly --debug.

General description: epstopdf is a Perl script that converts an EPS file to an
encapsulated PDF file (a single-page self-contained file whose media box is the
same as the original EPS's bounding box). The resulting file is suitable for
inclusion as an image. The script runs on both Windows and Unix-ish systems.

The script makes use of Ghostscript (overridable) for the actual conversion to
PDF. By default, it suppresses Ghostscript's automatic rotation of pages.

LaTeX users may make use of the epstopdf package
(https://ctan.org/pkg/epstopdf-pkg), which will run the (restricted form of the)
epstopdf script on the fly, thus giving the illusion that pdfLaTeX, etc. is
accepting EPS graphic files.

Please email bug reports to tex-k@tug.org.
See https://tug.org/epstopdf/ and https://tug.org/pkg/epstopdf/ for more.
