Pardon me for my ignorance as I have never used Image Event Scripting,
is this part of panther? Sips is part of tiger.
Can preview open EPS and save as PDf via script?

Panther and Tiger can convert EPS to PDF: just drag an EPS file to
the Preview icon.
But since you're still on 10.3, you can't use Automator (where
Preview is - at last - vaguely scriptable). But you could use the
shell command pstopdf, which should get you to PDF. (Getting all
those POSIX paths and filenames correct would be the hardest part,
for me.) From there you can use sips or Image Events scripting to
convert to JPG.

PS: I'd recommend checking output file sizes to alert you to any
'blank' images - I vaguely remember that there are some issues with
EPS files with negative bounding boxes.
