nhvinyls 0 Posted June 11, 2012 Hey everyone, for some reason I am having trouble with this EPS file. I vectored the image in Inkscape, and then saved the file as an EPS. Below you will find both files. I can open all my other eps files with no problem. Can anyone help me with this, is the way I am saving it, or maybe the file is too large for SignBlazer. Thanks for all your help. Nick Inkscape Version 0.48 SignBlazer Version 6.0.17 Monster Truck.eps Monster Truck.svg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted June 11, 2012 the .eps file is not a vector file. Did you save the wrong file? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nhvinyls 0 Posted June 11, 2012 I do not get what you mean, The file format in svg, I vectored it, and there is nodes on all points. What am I doing wrong? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted June 11, 2012 After you did the trace,,,did you delete the original bitmap file before you saved to an .eps file.? There are no vector nodes on the Monster truck, Only the square box outline. I have selected it on wire frame, The Monster truck is not vectored, It just looks like a bitmap was saved as an .eps file without being traced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted June 11, 2012 see if this will work, I took the .eps file into Illustrator CS2 and vectored it and saved as a version 8 .eps file. Monster Truck.eps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nhvinyls 0 Posted June 11, 2012 I do not know why Skeeter, but this seemed to work, I have vectored many files in Inkscape and saved them as EPS and transfer them to SignBlazer. But for some reason this file was not working. Anyways I really appreciate your help with this. Hopefully I can find out what the difference with your file and my file is. Have a great day or night, thanks again. Nick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted June 11, 2012 Your welcome, glad it worked...I took your unvectored .eps file into Illustrator, and vectored it. then saved it as an older version 8. That is the difference. Like I said,, it looks like you saved the bitmap as an .eps file. I tried in 2 different soft wares, and the .eps file you posted was not traced. /vector.
