I am attempting to create a workflow through which non-Adobe Windows XP users can create EPSs from MS Excel charts and graphs.
I'm successful doing this with the Adobe Generic PostScript Driver *except* that the BoundingBox is the size of a letter when I bring the resulting EPS into InDesign.
Is there a way to edit the BoundingBox out using a basic text editor? Or, is there a way to set the bounding box to be the same size of the chart?
It would be great is there was a simple process that I could communicate to non graphics people.

Why not simply have the users create PDFs of the charts from Excel and
then bring those into InDesign? Or if you really need EPS files, one
can always save a PDF as an EPS from Acrobat.

Unfortunately the real problem isn't InDesign but the system that we'll be uploading the EPSs to. The system dynamically pushes to InDesign and doesn't accept PDFs.
I'm really left with EPS as my only option and therefore need to remove the BoundingBox before I upload to the system.
