A quick look online (I googled 'pdf to eps') reveals a number of potential solutions. But forum link http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=59787 was interesting in that is sounds as if there is no absolutely perfect solution. Some convert to bitmap so lose quality, while others have various other problems. One suggestion even suggested rebuilding the pdf in eps format from scratch (I suspect that is unacceptable!).

I do quote from that forum link though: "EPS is another Adobe-proprietary file format, specifically belonging to Illustrator but Photoshop can create and work with some form of it. Here's my question: what are you trying to accomplish in this conversion? Is it necessary to convert the file to EPS, or is that mainly a file format you're most familiar with?"

Thanks.

I'm creating a pdf with Apache FOP in Linux then I need to convert the pdf it

I'm trying lot of ways, the only one that seems works is the pdftops. But,
when I convert it into Linux in command line

pdftops file.pdf -eps file.eps

This command creates me the eps but when I try to open it in Adobe
Illustrator in Windows XP It returns me the error

EAAFD+HelveticaNeueLTStd-MdCnO_99-Identify-H;
Font not found on the system; missing font has been substituted.

But 1: the fonts han not been substituted 2: the eps do not show words
inside it is all blank instead of the images

I'm sure that in Windows XP I have all the fonts becouse if I convert the
pdf to an eps inside the Adobe Illustrator all works fine and Adobe
Illustrator do not show me the fonts issue.

Can you help me?
What I'm doing wrong?
