Hola! Tengo un problema al abrir archivos en Illustrator. Cuando descargo algun vector e intento abrir el EPS desde WINRAR me aparece como archivo de texto. Alguien sabe que podrá ser?

EPS files are "text" files! Extract the files to the disk and then open in Illustrator. If you get then an error, report back. Your screenshot looks as expected when an Adobe Illustrator file is opened with a text editor.

@Lucia5E63 First, I'm wondering why the EPS file is 64MB? Using the WINRAR to compress it might have caused some problems when it was zipped or unzipped. Can you ask whoever made the vector to send it to you in the native .AI?

Winrar is a quite potent archiver, even that I prefer 7Zip. .ai files are more compact than .eps files, but both can be "native" Illustrator files. .ai files normally carry an embedded PDF file and can for this be read by Acrobat respective other programs that do not handle the original .ai file data.
