Encapsalated PostScript

Could be a text file, font, or an image.

You need an Adode program such as Photo Shop to open the file.

It may be accesible form other Adobe programs.

If Photoshop won't open the file, try one of the vector graphics based packages like Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand, or Corel Draw. It's possible there are elements in the EPS preventing it from opening the graphic if it was created in a vector program. Elaborate fills, paths, masks etc can have this result, for example.

Good luck...hope this helps!

A lot of Office applications (Word, WordPerfect, Excel) will allow you to view the file. Just choose Insert-Picture, From file and choose the EPS file. If it won't show you the EPS file, then your application may NOT support it after all. There is also a graphics viewer that some techies I know will swear to called IrfanView. It's free from www.IrfanView.com
