[KIPAX]

Does anyone know how to create an EPS file from a graphic such as JPG

I can save as EPS in photoshop but surely if soemone is asking for EPS they are expecting somehting more.. an EPS original with EPS attributes or whatever... Or is it as simple as that.... Must be EPS PC Ready ..anyone?

"There are two distinct types of .EPs files, one of which is a vector based graphics file and can be opened and easily edited for type, color, etc. in Adobe Illustrator or PC vector based programs like Corel Draw. They can be CMYK color, or flat pantone color based. These files could be "placed' or "imported" into Pagemaker (or Word, Quark, etc.), but not opened by it. They can be almost infinitely scaled in size without degrading the output because they are vector based. The other is an .EPS photo file, flattened, set resolution "picture" type file. It can be opened in PhotoShop or other image editing programs, also placed or imported into Pagemaker (or Word, Quark, etc.), but it will be significantly degraded if scaled beyond the set resolution. These are usually CMYK files, or can be set as Pantone duo-tone, tri-tone files."

I guess your stuff is teh latter. Sounds liek its just a file type used by publishing type peeps probably on Mac
