'Grouping' isn't a concept in either PostScript or PDF< can you explain more clearly what your perceived problem is ? I am referring to Group, Ungroup option available in Adobe Illustrator. Isn't that an option in PostScript in general?

No. Its a feature of Adobe Illustrator and relies either upon: 1) Features of the Illustrator file format 2) Specially crafted comments in PostScript 3) PDf files containing the original Illustrator file format. Just confirming to make sure that I understood correctly. Are you saying that the "grouping" can't be retained using gs command?

Created attachment 11134 [details] EPS file Hi, When I convert EPS to PDF using ps2pdf or gs command, am losing the grouping which was present in EPS file. Is there anyway I can retain the same grouping? I am attaching both original EPS file and gs generated PDF files for your reference. Thanks,
