There are two sorts of EPS files, displayable and non-displayable.
It is very simple to convert any postscript file into a non-displayable EPS
file. These can still be imported into page composition software etc.
To achieve this simply add two lines to the top of your postscript file.
%!PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-1.2
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
The numbers in the second line are variable depending on the limits of the
code. The above example is for a full 612-by-792 point (8.5x11 inch) image.
