MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted June 3, 2011 keeps giving invalid file type. Can anyone shed some light on this for me. sorry my mistake. It is vectorized. It opens fine in Flexi, but too new a version to open in my illy CS2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roxanneupnorth 106 Posted June 3, 2011 It opens fine in Illustrator.....So it is probably an eps created in Illustrator.....They are both eps files but not exactly the same format and there is compatibility problems..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BearlyRich 167 Posted June 4, 2011 It would help if you told us your version of Corel! My Corel X3 opened the file with no problems. I didn't think it would as it's created by Adobe version 13 which I thought was beyond my Corel's capabilities. Ah-well. Anyway, here's a version I converted with ghostscript/ghostview, then imported into Corel and saved again so it had a preview built-in. If you can't load this one, then you must have an old version of Corel... TurkeyCall1.eps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joshlw 0 Posted June 4, 2011 thanks BearlyRich that worked perfectly. I am using older corel 12 though. Thank you to every one for you input. I have a few file from time to time that do this and can't figure it out.thank you again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BearlyRich 167 Posted June 4, 2011 As long as it works, that's what counts... I posted a topic around here somewhere about converting newer format vector files. Here's the quick version: Install ghostscript and ghostview! You can open almost all those newer files using ghostview (which uses ghostscript) and then export them as an eps or pdf file. That's how I do conversions over here because my Corel X3 is "old" too and can't handle the newer formats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BearlyRich 167 Posted June 5, 2011 Sorry, in ghostview, it's "convert" under the File menu. When the Convert window opens, choose either "epswrite" or "pdfwrite" and you're good to go... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
