As Marc van Dongen said, the best way would be to use metapost.

If you already have a lot of graphics done with eepic, you could use
dvips and epstopdf:

Put the graphics into a LaTeX file, one figure per page and disable
page numbering.  Process the file with latex, not pdflatex.  Then run
the dvi file through dvips -E -i -S1.  The parameters are explained in
dvips's manpage.  You will get one eps file for each page with a tight
bounding box.  These files can be converted to pdf with epstopdf.  You
can then include the pdf files into your document as usual (using the
grapicx package).

Regards,
  Reinhard
