The bmeps package contains a command line program and a library to convert
bitmap image files (PNG/JPEG/NetPBM) to EPS or PDF and produces bounding box
files for use with LaTeX.
The program produces EPS level 1, 2 and 3 and PDF level 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4.
Depending on the EPS level there are different compression and encoding
algorithms available:
_ ASCII-Hex encoding
_ ASCII-85-encoding (requires PS level 2)
_ DCT-pass-through of JPEG files (requires PS level 2)
_ flate compression (requires PS level 3)
The program is intended to be used with LaTeX/dvips or other DTP software
accepting EPS graphics.
No automated scaling/rotating is done by the program to fit pages of any
paper size, this is left up to the DTP application including the graphics.
