Place .eps file in Elements?

Can you place an .eps file (resizing it at the same time) in Elements like you can in Photoshop? If so, can you provide instructions that i can relay to a client? I use only Photoshop and don't have Elements so I need to give the client instructions. thanks.

Suzanne,
It works the same way in Elements as Photoshop. I checked in Elements 2 and 3...I assume it would be the same in Elements 4 and 5.
When using the Place command, the only difference is that PS Place command has an X and Y box that can be adjusted. Elements has some extra icons for Scale and Screw but otherwise it's the same. The command Place is in the File menu as it is in Photoshop. Dragging and Dropping an .eps brings up the same size/resize dialog box in both Photoshop and Elements.
HTH,
Terri

  • Cannot place eps file "no filter found for requested operation"

    I have two compuers running CS3. One computer can place .eps files into an InDesign document with no problem. The other computer tries to place an .eps file into InDesign and they get "no filter found for requested operation." It is able to place .jpegs, pdfs but not .eps. In the meantime, I opened the .eps in Illustrator and saved it as a .tiff and then placed it into the InDesign document successfully but this is NOT a good solution as I have hundreds of .eps files I need to work with.
    How can I get this resolved?

    Try deleting preferences as outlined here. You might have to go so far as to reinstall InDesign, but I hope not.
    Also, AI is a much better format for placing Illustrator files than TIF or even EPS.

  • What are my options for opening EPS files in Elements 13? What is the best way to convert these to another type of vector file?

    I "upgraded" from Photoshop Elements... uh... mad old... to Elements 13 when my work computer got "upgraded" to Win8. Now I can't open EPS files which is how I receive collateral from our ad agency. What other vector files will work, and how can I convert EPS to these? Please be gentle if this is a stupid question - I know enough to be dangerous, but I'm not an expert at design by any means. I'm just frustrated because this isn't quite the "dead" file type that Adobe thinks it is. What was the point of upgrading if I'm pretty much left in the lurch?
    Thanks to any and all who can help! Much appreciated . -ASI

    What's important to understand is that Elements is a 'pixel' editor, not a 'vector' editor. As such, it has very limited 'vector' capacity (fonts, shapes...) What you are missing from older versions is the ability to convert vector items to standard pixel image file. To be able to open and work on eps files, you'd need Adobe Illustrator, which seems overkill for your purpose.
    So, your options are:
    - to request your ad agency to supply pdf format images instead of eps ones. My guess is that eps is beeing largely superseded by pdf, but I am not sure...
    - Use external tools to convert from eps to jpeg; a Google search would return free softwares like Irfanview or web based conversion.
    - You might want to keep (or reinstall) older Elements versions just for that purpose.

  • Unable to import/open EPS file in Elements 12

    I have installed the trial version of Elements 12 as we are looking at purchase for a client who needs a simple and inexpensive program to look at EPS files and save them as JPGs. Elements 12 says that an EPS file can be 'imported' as a supported file type, however when I click on File -> Import, it comes up with WIA Support, then when I click on that and select the EPS file, it says "No WIA compatible devices were detected. Check that your device is plugged in to the computer and the power is turned on".
    I have searched the internet and can't find anything to help, and the help files just direct to the forums. I have seen an article on how to import into Elements 11, but the options are not available in 12 (probably due to the fact that 12 is supposed to natively import the format). As I understand the trial is a fully-functioning package with no options turned off until purchase.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    You can get the Open as dialog in pse 12 on windows with this action
    Open As.atn
    https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=d7X1rXdE11yH0YHzrj7wog
    Unzip the download and load the action into the actions panel (Window>Actions) in the pse 12 editor in the Expert mode
    and that should give the Open as dialog and then click on your eps and choose Tiff from the dropdown menu.
    Just be aware that this workaround, as far as i know, only opens an eps file that has a tiff preview saved with it
    and then it only opens the tiff preview and not the full resolution eps.

  • EPS files with PICT preview do not preview in Applications

    I have upgraded from Mac OS 10.4.8 to 10.4.9. I used to place EPS files that have a PICT preview in the resource in Adobe Illustrator. Illustrator does not show the PICT preview anymore. I notice that other applications such as Resorcerer, etc. also don't show the EPS preview. So, I guess that there is an issue with the OS since the upgrade.
    MacPro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Further investigation proofs that if the PICT in the resource fork is bigger than 1024 Kb, that applications don't show the preview in 10.4.9. 10.4.8 is not a problem.
    The maximum size of a file's resource fork is 16MB. Has the maximum size changed? Or is this a bug?

  • "Cannot place this file - ??? 28962-ALDCL6RC.RSL" error message

    Using PM 6.5 in Classic mode on Mac (OS 10.4.11). I have an existing pagemaker document that contains an EPS file that I need to change. When I try to update link to new EPS file or place it, I get the "cannot place this file" message. I am creating EPS in Illustrator 6.0 (also in Classic mode.) I have tried to place EPS file in a new Pagemaker document and get the same message. This used to work. I would really appreciate any help.

    I seem to recall that PageMaker wasn't a good friend of EPS files, but I could be wrong after so many years not using it. I would try with TIFFs, just in case.

  • InDesign adding a white stroke around element in .EPS file after export

    I am trying to place an .EPS file over another image file (background is not white).  It does not matter in which manner I place, copy or insert the file.  Upon export to high quality .pdf (both interactive and print), there appears to be a while halo or stroke around one element in the .EPS file.  The .EPS file is a logo with a blue box and writing next to it.  The writing is fine, but the blue box has the stroke… so it is not the entire file element.  Very strange.  I have never seen this before and someone else testing the file does not have the same issue.  Any thoughts?

  • In which folder i should put eps parser.8by in elements 13, to open eps files??

    I have to be able to open eps.files in photoshop elements. it worked fine in 9, it did'nt occur to me that in newer versions you get less in stead of more..i regret buying it now
    So: in which folder i should put epsparser.8by in elements 13, to open eps files??

    Unfortunately, that EPS Parser.8BY only works in the 32 bit version of photoshop elements 13.
    If your windows system is 64 bit, then you would have the 64 bit version of photoshop elements 13 and the EPS Parser.8BY is an 32 bit plugin and won't work in the 64 bit version of pse 13.
    (i don't believe you can install the 32 bit version of pse 13 on a 64 bit windows system)
    So the solution would be to keep pse 9 and use it for things that pse 13 won't do.

  • Just installed Photoshop Elements 13 - how to open .eps files?

    I used to work with photoshop elements, never had a problem to open .eps files.
    but with the latest version photoshop elements 13 unfortunately i cannot open .eps files anymore.
    Do you have any idea how to solve this problem?
    Or do I have to buy another photoshop software....
    Thanks!

    I was rudely told by adobe there is no way to open an eps file. When I tried to respond he
    canceled our chat. But I read you can make it tiff? and do it that way? I tried to no avail. I paid 119 for this upgrade and now can't do what I need to. Any thoughts anyone to solve this problem? I have graphicstock.com and a lot of their files are either, jpg, png, eps , pdf files. I don't know why Adobe
    took away this and image extractor. Elements 13 is not what  I thought it would be. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been watching youtube videos to no avail.
