Joe: there are many flavors of EPS files. ProDraw has its own, Art Expression
has its own, Adobe Illustrator has its own, etc. The Adobe Illustrator file
format is the psuedo-universal exchange format for EPS files. I haven't used
Photoshop a lot, but even so, I'm not sure what you're trying to do.
ProDraw outputs vector drawings. Photoshop loads bitmap pictures. EPS files can
contain either or both. I can't see how a ProDraw clip could be loaded into
Photoshop, unless they have some sort of render from vector function. btw, The
only way to convert a ProDraw clip to Adobe Illustrator EPS is to convert the
ProDraw clip to IFF DR2D using the converter supplied with Art Expression, then
load the DR2D into Art Expression and export it as Adobe Illustrator.
This can also be done with PageStream 3.0 when it's released. Simply import the
ProDraw clip and export it back out in Illustrator EPS format.
