Hello,

I have been using GraphicsMagick(1.3.21) for a while to convert EPS files to JPG
gm convert "1.ps" "1.jpg"
and it was fine, since I tried to convert an EPS file with some inline figures inside it, the output was blank JPG, and some times its output just a part of the image.

I am working on Windows 8.1 x64

    GraphicsMagick uses Ghostscript to render EPS into a simpler intermediate format (one file per page), which GraphicsMagick then reads. On Windows, GraphicsMagick loads Ghostscript as a library. Check that there is plenty of temporary file space free. If there is plenty of space free, the problem is almost surely due to the way Ghostscript parses/renders the EPS file. This could be a problem with the EPS file or a bug in Ghostscript.

    SourceForge only produces an empty file for the EPS.zip attachment.
