From (CMYC) EPS or Adobe Illustrator etc. to JPG using ImageMagick:
convert -density 300 -colorspace RGB inputfile.ai -trim outputfile.jpg

Or using transparency:
convert -density 300 -colorspace RGB inputfile.ai -trim +repage -background transparent -alpha background PNG32:outputfile.png

From EPS to SVG using pstoedit:
pstoedit -f plot-svg inputfile.eps outputfile.svg
This uses a shareware plugin for pstoedit to enable SVG output.
