Good to know

  • The picture is placed in the EPS file as a bitmap; it is not turned into vector shapes.
  • An XPS file can hold several pages. EPS holds one picture, so when there is more than one page you get a ZIP with an EPS for each page.
  • XPS pages are drawn at 96 dots per inch unless you choose another resolution in Options.
  • Tick Remove metadata in Options to leave out information stored in the picture, such as the camera and the place.
