Very simple stupid question:
is it possible to create multiple page EPS files??
Or would you get one EPS per page.??

i believe the answer is seperate
only newer versions of illus and corel use paged vectors

don't know what the future will bring but eps till version 8 can't paginate or does include page breaks etc. afaik btw.

So if I have a multipage Freehand or Illy file and export it as EPS then I'll get a number of seperate EPS files, yeah?
- rabattski0
afaik yeah. just try and test it.

I did just try it and I get 12 EPSs from a 12 page docu....
thig is a customer was saying that it used to give them 1EPS file with 12 pages.

with what did you open it? and where are you going to send the file to?

FHMX 11.0.2
exported as EPS with TIFF preview.

makes sense it opens up right since it's a freehand eps to start with. could be that freehand adds extra info to the eps (it's all text) so it can open up. if the printer has freehand and can work with it than why not (then again saving as an eps doesn't make sense). anyways, open it up in illy or photoshop, see what they say and if they see the multiple pages.

ive been doing the transporting vector thing for years. only corel has multi page vectors for distribution
i always need to zip or folder the outputs but its cool with me because i send jpeg prrofs of what each eps/ai is
i'd like to know what your client is using
