Bash

Embedded Fonts Check

grep -ah %%DocumentFonts: * | cut -d : -f 2 | awk '{gsub(/^[ \t]+|[ \t]+$/,"");print}' | grep ^[a-zA-Z0-9]

Binary Image Check

grep -al %%BeginBinary *

GhostScript

An open source command line based solution for cleaning up eps files and much more.

Conversion Methods

"C:\gs\gs8.56\bin\GSWin32c" -sDEVICE=epswrite -r72 -sOutputFile="C:\TEST\D\1628730_303135_speakeps_2.EPS" -dNOPAUSE -dEPSCrop "C:\TEST\2\1628730_303135_speakeps_2.eps" -c quit

EPSwrite Device

The epswrite device outputs encapsulated postscript. Options

   -dLanguageLevel=1 | 1.5 | 2 | 3 (default is 2)
       Set the language level of the generated file. Language level 1.5 is language level 1 with color extensions. Currently language level 3 generates the same PostScript as 2.

EPS parameters

-dEPSCrop

   Crop an EPS file to the bounding box. This is useful when converting an EPS file to a bitmap. 

-dEPSFitPage

   Resize an EPS file to fit the page. This is useful for enlarging an EPS file to fit the paper size when printing. 

-dNOEPS

   Prevent special processing of EPS files. This is useful when EPS files have incorrect Document Structuring Convention comments.
