  • "EPS" file conversion please

    Posted by Jill Marie Welsh on August 28, 2008 at 11:51 am

    Just had a client’s "designer" send me over the .eps file I requested. Problem is, when I open it in Corel 12 it has no vector paths.
    The file is HUGE (18MB) so it’s too big to post here.

    Would someone possibly be able to convert it into anything use-able for me (Corel 12, .ai) if I send it to them via email?
    Please PM me or email me via my website if you can help, I am in dire need.
    Thanks so much.
    Love….Jill

    Hi Jill,

    The eps might be a bitmap saved in eps format, so if you cant print it, you will have to request the file as a vector file. Ive pm’ed you to see if I can help.

    Hi Jill,

    Andrew is correct, it’s a bitmap saved into an EPS, so there are no vectors.
    If you can’t get a vector version, I can re-draw it for you, but it wouldn’t
    be until tonight, when I get home.

    Cheers,
    Jamie.

    This is a jpg I made of it from Corel:

    I mainly just need the circular logo with the fire guy’s head in it. I have the MSA and FireDex logos, and I can easily type in new text.
    These go on banners, one 3×10 and one 4×8.
    I will more than likely paint the circular logo as I only have a small plotter and don’t want to seam/stack the vinyl.

    Thanks for even looking, guys, and sorry about plugging up your emails with that huge file.
    love….Jill

    Whew!
    I will have a look once my email is finished sending it out to another person, gosh it’s so nice to have help.
    I waited all week for this damn file, the event is on the 5th, and my suppliers will be closed Monday due to labor day.
    I have no idea why I was not allowed to simply lay this out myself (love the black text with the red outline)
    But now I will be able to start working on the damn thing.
    😉 😉 😉
    Big hugs to everyone and a smooch for Andrew.
    THANK YOU!!!!!!
    Love….Jill
