The script lets you choose a folder full of PDF files and it goes
through them and exports EPS files. The actual EPS export settings are
the settings that were last used when manually saving as an EPS. I would
imagine you can specify the settings to use for
EPSConversion/PSConversion in the script, but I haven't bothered trying
that yet...

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how I write an
AppleScript to save each page of a PDF from Acrobat as an EPS? I seem
to recall I have to create an "EPS Conversion" and save using this,
but can't quite figure out the syntax.
Or for that matter, any suggestions as to how to do this using
something other than Acrobat would also be appreciated.
