Talk:Encapsulated PostScript

message: Great meaty article, but is "Sadly, EPS is one of the worst "standards" to ever be created" really neutral? --Larry Sanger

thread_title:  Worst "standards"? 

message: In case you are trying to include an EPS image in Wikipedia, rather than rendering it as a PNG, consider converting it to SVG.  I was able to do this with the pstoedit  tool.  It did require some manual tweaks to the SVG code, but it worked quite well.  The resuling SVG drawing can be seen here: :Image:EEA_agency_logo.svg.  --ChrisRuvolo (t) 14:04, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Converting EPS to SVG

message: Is EPS a vector format? WMF and SVG mentioned in relation to it are. Why?--194.249.198.32 (talk) 14:14, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. It is in Category:Vector graphics markup languages. Why not ? Might be worth stating explicitly ? --87.194.174.252 (talk) 08:38, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: EPS like postscript, pdf, wmf and svg is a metafile format. It can contain vector graphics but it can also contain text, images etc. 130.88.108.187 (talk) 11:49, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: File Extension

thread_title:  Naming conventions for image file formats 

message: :Neither of these technologies exist on any other operating system, however.
Vector graphics existed only on the Mac?  And forks are only on the Mac?  Someone neutral on this matter should fix this.

thread_title:  "saving to EPS format" 

message: The current state of this article is not relevant to the "encapsulated postscript" format in any way -- the wast majority of the article is about how previews has been hacked into the format by various vendors in ways that make it impossible to exchange files once touched by the operating systems these vendors produce and the remaining part of the article is a, very, incomplete list of high-profile software which allows the user to produce files in a esp format. I don't think this article is worth saving as a separate topic but would rather have it deleted or merged with the article on the PostScript format, of which this format is simply a special case. This article does virtually nothing to make it possible for anyone to identify a file in the esp format nor to describe any real advantages or disadvantages.

thread_title:  Delete or merge the article 

message: The article summary misses the forest for the trees. It is technical to the point that it is almost unuseable by general interest readers. Needs to discuss the concept in more accessible language, and to discuss primary usages. For example, see this design site for an example of what should be here. --Theredproject (talk) 00:24, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article summary needs help 

message: Who developed it? When was it released? What improvements have different versions brought? What was the impact/legacy of the format? --Navstar (talk) 01:29, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
