@Caolán, Björgvin

At 4.2.0 we switched from ImageMagick convert/GS rendering to pstoedit/GS
rendering of EPS, both with and without preview.

pstoedit has really poor fidelity in rendering EPS for a preview, and its
resulting vector preview is of much lower quality than what convert/GS had
provided through the 4.1.x builds.

Can we roll back (resume use of convert rather than pstoedit--revert of the
f5c3f5601a3739dead635f9abc446951b385018f commit for bug 41407 to clear the
regression) and at least generate a clean raster preview of EPS?

But would still need to figure out where we have clobbered use of EPS when
printing to PS, and in export to PDF.

The alternative might be to purge EPS from the equation and with a suitable
GS-poppler-cairo input filter and always convert to SVG. We seem to retain SVG
at all steps (preview, printing, and export to PDF).
