How to convert image to EPS file without leaving any margins with MATLAB?

I am converting images to EPS files with the following script.

%% Image 2 eps file.
% - img: the image.
% - eps: eps filename.
function Image2Eps(img, eps)
    imshow(img,'border','tight','InitialMagnification',100);
    print(gcf,'-depsc',eps);
end

The file generated almost bound the image tightly. But a small margin is always left on the top and on the right side. How to make the EPS file exactly the size of the bitmap image?

If you are not too locked on Matlab. You can use Image Magick to do the conversion. I used it in a command line:

imgtops2.exe imge.ppm -e -c 0,0 -o image.eps

I used it on a Windows machine, but I believe they have working binaries for other OS as well.

Furthermore, once you have a working command line in dos or shell you can call it from Matlab using system, dos or unix commands.

PS.

I used an old version of ImageMagick, in more recent releases they might have changed imgtops2 to convert, you'll have to look at their documentation.
