security802 686 Posted April 5, 2014 Some of the newer EPS files will not open in SCALP, about 1/3 to 1/2 of the ones i got from here will not open in SCALP. The work around for that is inkscape or signblazer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BearlyRich 167 Posted April 6, 2014 Last time I checked, you have to install ghostscript for inkscape to work with eps files. You can find it here: http://www.ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.htmlhttp://www.ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShowMeCleaning 53 Posted April 6, 2014 I can't seen to get .eps file to open. In fact I can't even find it to import or open. Am I doing something wrong trying to import it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JessXEmoji 46 Posted April 6, 2014 I avoid .esp files. I use ai or svg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShowMeCleaning 53 Posted April 6, 2014 Ok I went to sure cuts a lot pro 3 upgrade or get the updates. And installed update 3.060 and guess what all the .eps files traced and imported. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skarekrow 1,842 Posted April 7, 2014 I added ghostscript to my PATH and now Inkscape works fine with eps format. Cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
