Hi, I have uploaded some items EPS files in Adobe Stock and I am seeing a huge color difference in shades.

These usually happens in blue and purple shades.

Previously we use to upload eps and jpg both, in which jpgs were used to create preview but with recent change I believe Adobe Stock takes EPS file as a preview and generates its own image out of it.

I have even tried contacting Adobe Stock support but have not got any solution.

What is right way to export so that colors are preserved in EPS preview.

Ok, I got your point that script is doing no change and the possiblility to change EPS save options is not available.

I request you, if you can modify the script and when batch is being started we get the possibility to choose Save As option where I can manually change the preferences and save it.

But this should only happen one time. Like if I have around 100 files then the script should not ask the Save As option 100 times.

I thankyou for your time in debugging this and I appritiate your efforts in this.

Scripts cannot reproduce everything Illustrator can do. In your hope, there is no possibility to specify the transparency flattener options in detail.

Other than that, the EPS save options are only available for items that the user might need to change. Since the new version is an Electron application, the settings are controlled on the GUI.

You are welcome to visit the online store where you purchased it and download it at no additional charge.

If you would like to test this, save the colour profile as a RGB file and see how it works.

Already tested. I just want to mention that I use a tool to upscale the vector to 4MP

Can this be culprit?

Thank you for your answer.

I tried with Illustrator 2020 (24.3.0) on Windows 10, but the problem did not reproduce. The colors are the same. The file weighs about 1.6 MB even in this environment. Your file is 1.8 MB and the 0.2 MB mystery continues to exist.

Please provide a screenshot where the minimumArea shows version 1.1.2
Please provide screenshots of the color settings for each of Illustrator 2020 (24.3.0) and Illustrator 2021 (25.4.8). See attached images for samples
Why is there a difference between the version you created and the version that uses minimumArea?
Are Illustrator 2020 (24.3.0) and Illustrator 2021 (25.4.8) running on the same PC?

1- Attached screenshot

2- Attached color setting

3- I don't know why there is weight issue. Manual is getting to 1.60MB while minimumArea is giving 1.71MB.

4- Yes, both illustrator runs on same PC. And I choose to use 2 version because, on version 25.4.8 I have created custom key shortcuts to speed my workflow.

Thumbnail previews in Adobe Stock are compressed RGB versions of the originals.

Speaking as a customer, EPS is a zombie file type I don't use anymore. Among other limitations, EPS is not color managed. I prefer vector graphics files in Illustrator AI or SVG format.
