Use TeXShop as a PDF manipulation tool
Authored by: ejensen on Aug 14, '03 01:10:34PM

One other use for TeXShop is to convert encapsulated postscript .eps files into nicely cropped .pdf files. Just drag the file (with a .eps extension) onto TeXShop (or use Open...) and TeXShop converts it (actually it just calls a command line tool). This is handier (and cheaper) than using an image manipulation application such as Photoshop). Also it works better than using the print dialog to save as a .pdf, since that will leave a lot of whitespace around the graphic.
