Purpose of jpeg2ps
|
|
==================
|
|
jpeg2ps converts JPEG files to PostScript Level 2 or 3 EPS. In fact, jpeg2ps
|
|
is not really a converter but a "wrapper": it reads the image parameters
|
|
(width, height, number of color components) in a JPEG file, writes the
|
|
according EPS header and then copies the compressed JPEG data to the output
|
|
file. Decompression is done by the PostScript interpreter (only PostScript
|
|
Level 2 and 3 interpreters support JPEG compression and decompression).
|
|
If you have a slow communication channel and a fast printer, sending
|
|
compressed image data is a big win.
