I have spent the last four months building a graphical app which should
eventually export the graphics to EPS format. Now the final stage of my app
has come, but I have trouble getting a good overview of where EPS exactly
fits in, and what I should do.
For example, is it true that EPS is almost the same as PS with some
limitations?
If so, what are those limitations?
And, is it true that EPS only can (and must) hold one page?

I would appreciate it if you have some suggestions about books I should
read... (I already have ordered the book PostScript Language Reference
Manual SE,1991)
