For the record, I save as .eps from IDL and then use ghostscript from
the command line [in linux].
eg:
gs -sDEVICE=png16m -sOutputFile=foo.png -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dEPSCrop -
r300x300 foo.eps
Other useful devices are pdfwrite, jpeg, tiff24nc.
The EPSCrop option only considers the .eps file inside the bounding
box.
The -r300x300 is resolution of 300 DPI.
Ghostscript is well useful.
Cheers.
Russell.
