  • How to remove white back ground box on EPS?

    Posted by Martin Cole on January 5, 2009 at 11:42 am

    Hi All and a very Happy New Year,

    I’m banging my head against the desk here, so need some help.

    I need to print and cut the Thermo pure logo if anyone is familiar.
    Iv’e imported the EPS into s/lab 8 and looks like a bitmap with white box in back ground.

    I need to produce a cutting path but can’t seperate box from logo.
    I traced it in X3 but the quality of belended colours is not good enough.

    When I open the PDF version It comes out all green.

    Has anyone got the logo in ready to print and cut form? 😕

    Or is there something I’m missing or not doing.

    S/lab 8 is for versaworks version btw with no acuscan.

    any help much appreciated from a man that should be in bed and not in work as have man flue.

    Martin

    wouldn’t it be easier to import the eps into corel, make the change there?

    Are you not cutting from Corel into Vesaworks

    Hope you get better soon mate

    I don’t use signlab but it sounds like a similar problem when importing an eps into older versions of corel try the .ps filter instead of .eps

    Probably wrong again but my flexisign (genuine copy with license) has an unmask facility when importing eps files. Perhaps this might work (if such a facility exists on your software)

    Martin in signlab you should be able to remove the backround with arrange /clipping /clipping free
    normally does the trick
    if you dont have the option email me the file and I will have a go for you
