ps.map output to eps for PC word processor

Hi,

ps.map output can not be used in Corel Draw or whatever. Usually
these programs can only import Adobe Illustrator EPS, which
is a postscript dialect. Translating GRASS-postscript into AI-eps
format cannot be done automaticly as far as I can see.

If you want to edit grass maps, I would suggest to export raster
maps as tiff and vector maps as dxf, and assemble the two in
Corel!.

try ghostscript which can convert ps to eps and ai format (files:
ps2epsi.ps and ps2ai.ps). IMHO ghostscript should be installed on
every UNIX box.
