Hi Marc,

Which Inkscape build are you using (the app from the DMG, homebrew, macports, etc.)? I just rechecked EPS opening with the DMG and homebrew builds and they're working for me.

Cheers, Tim

Hi Marc,

in case you're on Windows, this FAQ item describes how to get this working: https://inkscape.org/en/learn/faq/#how-open-eps-files-windows (or in German, if I guessed correctly from your name: https://inkscape.org/de/lernen/haufig-gestellte-fragen/#How_to_open_EPS_file...)

I installed today Inkscape.

Unfortunately I could not open any .eps files. Neither if I open a jpg and translate it into EPS and safe it in EPS formate.

Please could you help me out, to solve this problem?

Regards Marc

Hi,

Thank you. It was the miss of Ghostscript.

Problem solved!

Hi Marc,

So, Inkscape's EPS import depends on the `ps2pdf` command which is part of Ghostscript, and is not bundled in with Inkscape but which I had installed on my system. If you're happy installing ghostscript with homebrew or macports, then I'd suggest doing that.

Otherwise, as a workaround without Ghostscript installed, you can convert from EPS to PDF using Preview.app, which you can import into Inkscape.

(Thanks to su_v in IRC for clarifying this. :-)

Cheers, Tim
