Just installed GhostScript 8.54 for Windows. Does anyone know of the minimum parameters to pass to gswin32c.exe to make it convert, say, someFile.eps to someFile.eps.pdf?

A:
You use the ps2pdf program for that. This documentation states:
The usage for ps2pdf is
ps2pdf [options] input.[e]ps output.pdf
or, on Unix systems and some versions of Windows NT and OS/2
ps2pdf input.[e]ps
which is equivalent to
ps2pdf input.[e]ps input.pdf
So, locate ps2pdf on your system, and give either of those a try.

Under Windows, ps2pdf and other utilities are located in C:\Program Files\gs\gs#.##\lib
as .bat and .cmd files. This isn't exactly obvious, especially if you're looking for .exe files.

@arclight: what you say, is not necessarily true (but still helpful for some people). It all depends on what you chose when installing. A user (or his administrator) may have chosen a non-default path, or drive d:, when installing Ghostscript. and `c:\program files` is `c:\programme` on German installations. But you can overcome this by saying: *Usually, Ghostscript versions install into `%programfiles%\gs\gs#.##\*`*. Because %programfiles% is an environment variable that points to the default insta path on all locales, be it `c:\program files` or `d:\programme`...
