SO , i have upgraded to X5 from X3 , and now when i Export EPS files, they are MASSIVE, I work in a company that does signs, and car vinyls and other graphics /vector realated work, and It is important that i use EPS as file format for out " plotter" but a size of 800 mb and 2,2 GB now when it used to be 10 mb is insane.
What went wrong in X 5 ? this never happened before, and im very curious if anyone else if having this issue,
I also use POSTSCRIPT 2, as 3, makes the feil over 2 GBs
Please help me as im lost how this can be , i cant use PDF as the plotter only recognize EPS or JPG.
Thank you for your time.
Regards Glacius
I wonder if you had the the image header turned off in X3, but it has defaulted back to on for your X5 installation.
You probably don't need an image header for sending to a plotter -- and if you are plotting a banner, the image header could be very large. So try turning it off (in the General tab during export) or at least set it to a very low resolution like 10dpi and see if that significantly changes the size.
Hello Harry thank you for quick answer
Could you explain futher where this " general tab is? " would be helpfull
I cant see that anywhere.
