Converting PDF figures to EPS?

Depending on your operating system, you might be able to use the pdftops command line tool from the Poppler libraries, perhaps.

Code: Select all

pdftops -eps myfile.pdf myfile.eps
Or combine pdf2ps and ps2epsi from ghostscript.

You might also be able to do with Inkscape.

But more often people convert in the other direction. Is there a special reason you need to convert in this direction?

Use pdftoeps from ghostscript. Also on CTAN. You might also be interested in the epstopdf package.

If you want more detailed help, at least tell us what operating sytem you're using.
