It's the command that gets inserted to the prefs by default. The -f and -l flags are needed, else the conversion fails with multi-page PDF files. See man pdftops: -eps Generate an Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file. An EPS file contains a single image, so if you use this option with a multi-page PDF file, you must use -f and -l to specify a single page. No more than one of the mode options (-eps, -form) may be given. Jürgen
