Bounding Box adjustment:
All EPS files include bounding box data, which define the frame in which the graphics is located. EPS files created by the procedure explained in the previous section have a bounding box, which usually corresponds to the margins of the paper size. However, usually you want EPS graphics bounding box to be adjusted to real borders of the drawing to get rid of the white margins which choke space in your LaTeX document. You can adjust bounding box by using epstool utility that is included in GSView package. (GSView option File/EPS to PS will do this too, but it is not very reliable.) Create the batch file pscrop.bat
