It turns out that in inkscape 1.0 also when opening EPS in inkscape GUI it first opens ps2pdf 'DOS' window for some time, then closes the DOS window and then finally interface window for importing EPSs appears. Is that intended or a bug?
After migrating to inkscape 1.0 I modified command line for transforming EPS to SVG. Now it looks like:
inkscape.exe --export-type=svg filename.eps
It works fine but during transformation it opens additional 'DOS' window (see attached) telling that program ps2pdf.exe is running. This did not occur when using older inkscape versions. I have two questions:
1. Is it possible to disable showing this additional window and make the transformation 'quite'?
2. ps2pdf is part of mikxtex (latex) installation which I am using as well. If I remove ps2pdf.exe from where miktex is installed, transforming SVG to PDF is not working anymore. The question is: What happened if user does not have latex installation on his maching when running inkscape? Are some necessary files, like ps2pdf.exe copied to the machine while installing inkscape (whille checking if such files already exists)?
