Notes on File Formats
EPS Format
EPS files generally contain a TIFF preview which is used to display the graphic on the screen. This preview serves solely as a reference for the graphic and has no effect on printing quality on PostScriptâ„¢-compatible printers.
If the EPS file contains no preview, a rectangle will be displayed which is the same size as the placed graphic.
* 
EPS files from Arbortext IsoDraw or Adobe Illustrator can also be imported.
Arbortext IsoDraw files which include placed EPS files can only be exported in EPS format. The placed EPS file will be lost in the case of other file formats.
