We will be using Ghostscript to do this conversion. The syntax for EPS to PDF conversion is as follows: epstopdf įor example, if we have a file named business-card.eps, we can do the conversion as follows: epstopdf business-card.eps business-card.pdf To install in Ubuntu/Linux Mint, open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install texlive-font-utils This is easily achieved with epstopdf which relies on the text-font-utils package. But for now, let me introduce the tools we will be using for the conversions. I’ll be showing you how to do easy command line batch conversions using a simple bash script. Take some time to understand what the commands do. Don’t just blindly enter commands from forums. The command line is your friend, but definitely exercise caution. Linux newcomers tend to get a bit scared of the command line.
File Conversions using Command Line Tools Check out the video at the end of this post for a quick demo. You can also export the file out as a PDF. Or simply drag the file into the Inkscape window. You can use Inkscape to import EPS and AI files.
To install Xreader in Ubuntu/Linux Mint, open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install xreader I tested this on a few files and it seems to work without any issues. EPS and AI files can be opened using the pre-installed Xreader (Document Viewer) app. I am running Linux Mint 18.3 (XFCE Edition). In addition, we will also cover basic conversions into PDF. In this post, I am going to show you a few different ways of viewing EPS and AI files. I used to encounter issues with viewing these files in a native Linux application. I constantly work with EPS and AI files in my Printing and Promotional Merchandising Business ( Event Elves).
