How to Convert PDF to EPS?

EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is the powerful image format. It supports vector graphics and bitmaps. The EPS vector graphics can be modified in Illustrator, CorelDraw, and even input in Photoshop. Since it can output the high-definition images in various platforms, it is favored by those who are engaged in printing and publishing.
