Thanks. I think at least there should be a 'skip' option for the eps
files.

People sometimes have identical PDF and EPS versions of their images
in the same folder, with, e.g., troublesome EPS files manually
converted, or both versions directly exported from the source program.
If the PDF-version is included as image, it is impossible to export
to latex(plain) without overwriting the existing EPS version with a
new version (created by ghostscript). There is a warning at least,
but still it means no export without data loss in the existing EPS
file.
The warning dialogue only allows overwrite, overwrite all, and
cancel export.
Should I file this as bug/enhancement request?
Thanks,
