+The bmeps package contains a command line program and a library to
+convert bitmap image files (PNG/JPEG/NetPBM) to EPS. EPS level 1, 2
+and 3 can be used.
+
+Depending on the EPS level there are different compression and encoding
+algorithms available:
+
+ _ run-length-compression (2 and above)
+ _ flate compression (3 and above)
+ _ ASCII-85-encoding instead of ASCII-Hex (2 and above)
+
+The program is intended to be used with LaTeX/dvips or other DTP software
+accepting EPS graphics.
+
+No automated scaling/rotating is done by the program to fit pages of any
+paper size, this is left up to the DTP application including the graphics.
