Post by thread:[OT] EPS viewer. Was: Re: [OT] My Raspberry Pi ha

On the subject of viewers, can anyone here recommend a freeware EPS viewer? I tried "EPSViewer", but it crashes frequently to the point of being unusable. Cheers, -Neil.

Have you tried Irfanview? On 4/24/2012 5:01 PM, Neil wrote: > On the subject of viewers, can anyone here recommend a freeware EPS > viewer? I tried "EPSViewer", but it crashes frequently to the point of > being unusable. > > Cheers, > -Neil. > >

Irfanview does not seem to be big on vector formats. I recently tried and got a lot of decode errors with .eps and .ai files. Others can open these files fine with photoshop and illustrator.

It looks horribly dated, but will probably work. Most free software zealots like myself are on Linux or related platforms, where programs like Evince, Okular and the like deal with PDF, [E]PS, and many other vector formats. Evince appears to be available for Windows too [2]. On Linux/Gnome platforms, it's fantastic, but I don't have any personal experience of its behaviour on Windows.
