Inserting EPS file into Publisher 2000
I can insert an EPS file into Publisher but I can't see
the image on screen. Can see jpg or gif etc but not EPS. No error reported, prints OK but I'd realy like to be able to see the image on my screen. |

Check out view, pictures, detailed display, although if you are seeing other images
this probably isn't the solution. Could be a video driver issue, go to the manufacturer's web site and look around for a newer driver. -- Mary Sauer MS MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://www.mvps.org/msauer/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "David" wrote in message ...

David the reason why you cannot see the EPS is because EPS does not display.
Normally an EPS file will have a low res TIF picture included in the EPS which displays purely for placement reasons. If you do not have a Postscript printer, only the low res TIF will print, not the full resolution of the EPS. In your case, the EPS pictures you have do not have a low res TIF so they will print nothing. As you say the image is printing OK, you must be printing to a Postscript printer. -- "If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there!" |

Mary EPS only displays if the EPS contains a low res TIF preview, which is
normal. If the EPS does not contain a low res preview, you will see nothing, just a place holder. -- "If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there!" |

Thank you for your answers.
I mis-spoke when I said it prints ok...it prints to an Acrobat file, which would make sense in light of what you've told me. Thank you again. -----Original Message----- Mary EPS only displays if the EPS contains a low res TIF preview, which is normal.
