Why does Photoshop not open this EPS file (while Illustrator does)?

Hi all,

Take a look at the following article to move designs between Photoshop and Illustrator for different workflow that suits your design objectives: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/move-designs-between-photoshop-illustrator.html

Also, if you are looking to work with Illustrator design in Photoshop? See this: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/use-illustrator-artwork-in-photoshop.html

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Mohit

This file had been created 04/10/93 using Illustrator 5 and 6 components (see appendix).

It can be rasterized by Photoshop CS2, but not by CS6 (error: unable to parse)

Nothing newer available here!

It can be opened by Illustrator CS2 or CS6, with or without font update.

It can be previewed in high quality by InDesign CS2, but not by CS6 (error: limitcheck).

A test by PSAlter (PostScript Editor and Analyzer) indicates a couple of font problems.

Ignoring these, a preview is possible. All fonts are embedded.

With respect to the age of this file, a transformation into a newer version is highly

recommended!
