The package builds upon the graphics package, providing a key-value interface for optional arguments to the \includegraphics command. This interface provides facilities that go far beyond what the graphics package offers on its own.

For extended documentation, see epslatex.

The package is part of the graphics bundle, which is one of the collections in the LaTeX ‘required’ set of packages.
