The quality depends on the import from PDF to Draw, and it has difficulties with path clipping, gradients and fonts beyond the three standard ones (serif, sanserif, typewriter). The principle is that the application opens PDF files as "Draw" documents, which can then be manipulated and printed at will. If you want an exhaustive list of possibilities, note that OpenOffice/ LibreOffice implement this feature, but the result quality is somewhere between ghostscript and ImageMagick in your list above. I found some posts on this, but not a (thorough) comparison of possibilities, please correct me if I'm wrong. What are your experiences for this kind of task? Did I forgot certain programs and/or command line options that improve quality?
Gradients are rendered properly by Inkscape, but Poppler somehow chops up the gradient into many shapes of different colors.Inkscape does this best by only rasterizing the unsupported area. Transparency is not supported in EPS, but instead of flattening the layers, most programs rasterize the image producing big files and ugly graphs.acroread -toPostScript use acroread (Linux only).convert in.pdf out.eps uses ImageMagick and always rasterizes the image.pdf2ps in.pdf out.eps uses ghostscript and works ok for simple documents.
pdftops -eps in.pdf out.eps uses Poppler and works good and is fast.inkscape -export-area-page -export-eps=out.eps in.pdf using the graphical program Inkscape works best, but is a bit slow.The following list is ordered by decreasing quality: I have tried several things but I am wondering if there is a better option.
I'm having some trouble converting PDFs (created by Adobe Illustrator on a Mac) to EPS.
