eps file by AutoCAD

2007/10/30 - [computer/linux] - Trouble eps file created by AutoCAD in LaTeX

The above post described the troubled eps file created by AutoCAD.
It could not be opened by gv with an old version gs.

The reason why the eps file was so ugly and was not read correctly by gv the default Binary Tokenize PostScript code option of the PostScript Level 2.

Reference : page 124 on the file http://images.autodesk.com/adsk/files/acad_dpg.pdf

Deactivate  Tokenize PostScript and Compression option, then the eps file can be read by emacs.


Properties -> Custom properties ->  Printer Control -> Binary Tokenize PostScript code (level 2 feature)


All lines are too thick on the screen and the paper.

Open *.eps file by emacs,  change the following line

6 setlinewidth 1 setlinecap 1 setlinejoin

to

3 setlinewidth 1 setlinecap 1 setlinejoin .
