sorry, typo, I meant
ps2eps knot3.ps
Thanks, I didn't know about this ps2eps tool.
It does convert knot3.ps to a proper eps format.
knot3.ps (and a few other vector images) will be removed very soon,
because we'll be able to generate them during build. And yes,
to build with pdflatex, those ps images will be converted to pdf
format by epstopdf.
as I said, it's not needed. (eps is smaller than pdf)
Yes, pdflatex+graphics can use this eps file directly,
(but looks like it uses package epstopdf-pkg to do the
conversion in the background automatically.)
But eps is not smaller than pdf, for knot3, eps is 1.2MB
(same as ps format), pdf is 148KB.
So it looks like we have to use one of ps2eps or epstopdf.
And epstopdf is used in the background if we use ps2eps first.
So it still looks like using only epstopdf is the better
solution here.
