Graphics conversion hacks

I had to convert a slew of images into png and eps so they would work in a LaTeX document. The following proved useful to me:

• img2eps to covert gif, jpeg, png, tiff, and xpm to eps.


• giftopng to convert gifs to png. find . -iname "*.gif" -exec giftopng {} \;


• And a short script to convert jpg to png:
  
  
  
  • #!/bin/bash
  
  
  • filename=${1%.jpg}
  
  
  • jpegtopnm "$1" | pnmtopng > "$filename.png"
  
  
  
  

I'm sure there are better ways but these worked for me.
