Importing Hints


This application supports the PostScript %%Baseline comment found in some EPS files, so that in-line graphics will be correctly aligned to the surrounding text.
This application will accept .ai (Adobe Illustrator) files directly, but only if you have saved them with the eps header (see File Save As... in the Illustrator menu)
The EquationBuilder application  saves its files in a native eps format, even though the files have an extension of .eqn EquationBuilder files can be dragged directly into this application.
Filter services, provided by third party vendors, provide a means for importing additional formats like GIF, PICT, Sun raster file, etc.
Many NEXTSTEP applications can produce EPS files. The standard mechanism is to use File Save As... or File Save To..., or simply Edit Copy and then Edit Paste in this application.  One trick you can use to create an EPS is to go to a drawing program and draw what you want to be in the EPS file.  Select those items, copy, and then go to a Send window in Mail.app and do a paste to paste the graphics into mail.  Click and drag the image out of the mail message...it comes out as an EPS file.
