What changes when you convert PDF to EPS

  • Every page of the PDF is rendered as a sharp image (150 dpi) and saved as EPS. A single-page PDF gives one EPS file.
  • A PDF with several pages gives one EPS image per page, delivered together in a ZIP file (up to 20 pages).
  • Pages are drawn on a white background, just as they look when printed.
  • Text and vector drawings in the PDF become pixels, so the result is a picture, not selectable text. Password-protected PDFs cannot be converted.
