hello
I install ImageMagick on windows.
Is it possible to crop (delete) white margins of .eps file with ImageMagick?
very thanks

Have you tried -trim? See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/crop/#trim. But if are expecting to write back to an EPS, then Imagemagick is not the tool for you. It will rasterize the vector data in the EPS and then put an EPS vector shell around the raster data.
See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/formats/#vector

thanks
yes. i used: but:
1- 73 KB size file increaseed to 614 KB. My journal do not accept large file size.
2- Quality is reduced.

how to reduse the file size?
how to increase the quality?
what is "rasterize"?

Rasterize is convert the vector data to pixels. You should not be converting an EPS to EPS in Imagemagick. Your results are just what I was suggesting might happen. IM is not the proper tool to convert vector to vector, because it makes the vectors into pixels and increase the file size.

thanks
can you have other way?
