In older versions of LibreOffice, if I am not mistaken, it was possible to embed EPS into PS file by using “Print to file” (also if EPS has raster preview, the vector image was embedded). But in 5.3.3 a raster image is embedded in PS (in LibreOffice Writer). How can I embed vector EPS into PS or PDF?

It is possible to use vector images in the PDF or SVG format instead of EPS. It seems that they are exported to a PDF document as vector images in LibreOffice Writer.
You can easily convert any EPS to PDF (still problematic on LibO) and SVG from command line on Linux. With
epstopdf input.eps --outfile=ThePDF.pdf
you turn your input.eps file into a well formatted, single page PDF. Then with
pdf2svg ThePDF.pdf FinalSVG.svg
you obtain a perfect SVG to use on Writer.
