epstool installation

Post by rine111 »

Into which directory should we extract the epstool zip files (Windows 10)?

Thanks.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Hi Rine,

welcome to the forum!

You can unzip it anywhere you like. Such as in an epstool folder in your documents directory, or to the programs folder if you like. It's a command line tool anyway. So you need to start a command line shell (terminal window, cmd), change into the folder that you chose, and run the tool as command with options. Or run the epstool with full path name, such as c:\programs\epstool ... options ...
