{title:Translate a list of Stata graph files from .gph to .eps as used for figures in The Stata Journal}

{p 8 15}{cmd:gphepssj} {it:name_list}

{p}
where {it:name_list} is a list of file names without extensions.


{title:Description}

{p}
{cmd:gphepssj} translates a list of Stata .gph files to a list of Encapsulated PostScript .eps files
with the same names and different extensions, containing figures of the usual default size used by
The Stata Journal (SJ). If the list is {it:name_1 ... name_n}, then the .gph files are assumed to be named
{it:name_1{sf:.gph} ... name_n{sf:.gph}}, and the .eps files are created as  {it:name_1{sf:.eps} ... name_n{sf:.eps}}.
If the .eps files already exist, then they are replaced.


{title:Remarks}

{p}
{cmd:gphepssj} was written to save SJ authors the trouble of writing multiple {help translategph:translate}
commands and finding out and remembering the default {cmd:xsize} and {cmd:ysize} options for {help translategph:translate}
used by the SJ editors. It is intended for SJ authors who wish to preview their inserts using {help sjlatex:SJ LaTeX}
with the figures at the right size. It should be stressed that the SJ editors
prefer to be supplied with the original .gph files in a SJ submission, so they can manually adjust them.
For further SJ submission guidelines, refer to the {browse "http://www.stata-journal.com/":SJ Web site}.
