Value (bool): The <scaleIndependently> of an <EPS|EPS object> is true or false.

Description:
Use the <scaleIndependently> <property> to control the screen appearance of an <EPS> <object>.

If the <scaleIndependently> is true, the <PostScript> image is scaled vertically to fit the full height of the <EPS|EPS object> and horizontally to fit the full width, even if this causes the image to be distorted.

If the <scaleIndependently> is false, the <PostScript> image is scaled proportionally to fit at least one dimension, even if the other dimension does not completely fill the <EPS|EPS object's> rectangle.

This property is supported only on Unix systems with Display PostScript installed.
