556167 2007-06-05 07:56:00 But they want people to pay for Photoshop. I don't think Billy wants to buy it to convert one file. Graham L (2)
556168 2007-06-05 08:09:00 This might do the trick. Can't see a charge for it.

I've already linked to a free resource.

556170 2007-06-05 09:06:00 Send the image to me Billy if you like and I'll convert it for you. Greg (193)
556171 2007-06-05 09:18:00 Apologies if I am going over old ground, and there is always a but .

But how would any this help in the case of Billy?

Are these converters not just a form of “Save AS” as in a graphics application for which Billy has been advised is not a solution?

If this were the case, would he then not just end up with a third graphic file? One that contains with the same content as the bitmap and jpg only this time with an eps file extension?

Fellow PF1 member Shortcircuit ( . pcworld . co . nz/member . php?u=8516" target="_blank">pressf1 . pcworld . co . nz) should be able to give a definitive answer .

556174 2007-06-05 10:45:00 Yeah I think you're right. Fellow PF1 member Shortcircuit (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) should be able to give a definitive answer.

How did you know I was lurking around Greg? :D

You would be best to open your 'pattern' in a drawing program and then export it to EPS (encapsulated post script), rather than saving it and adding .eps on the end.

If you need it done Billy PM me for my e-mail addy... or I'm sure Greg can do it for you as well in Photoshop.

556175 2007-06-05 10:49:00 Photoshop as well as Freehand (similar to Illustrator) user(PC) here. winmacguy (3367)
556176 2007-06-05 10:57:00 Sorry to be so long coming back guys, and thanks for all the assistance. The suggestion of vector graphics conversion rang a bell, I think that is what they want.

I'll email the bitmap versions to Greg in the morning (if he promises not to laugh at Mrs T's taste or post links on PF1 to share the joke!!) and he can see what happens in a conversion.

Personally speaking, I can't see what's wrong with the existing curtain, but she's a powerful woman when she gets the bit between her teeth is Mrs T, and after 20 years (and the mental scars to prove it) I'm happy to oblige!

Cheers
