When I save an image in Photoshop CS2 as an EPS a box comes up titled ‘EPS options’. If I want to bring the saved EPS into a Quark 6.5.2 document, what are the best options to choose from?
It gives me various Preview options and various Encoding options.

I used to save Binary encoding with JPEG preview.

If you want problems, check on one of the options below that.

I thought you had to save with tiff preview to avoid problems?

Hey, I’ve moved on to ID quite some time ago…

IIRC, the advantage of the JPEG preview was that both Macs and Windows Quark could use them with no problem.

I don’t use Quark either I just remember there was a preview problem and I thought the solution was to save with tiff preview.

I’ve dumped QXP too, but from 6 (maybe even 5) onwards it did render JPEG and TIFF ok, on my Mac at least. What QXP couldn’t handle were TIFF files save with "modern compression techniques" (aka ones that worked well – ZIP or JPEG). Don’t know if QXP 7 has fixed this – dare I say, who cares?

For QXP 6, I found Mac 8-bit/Pixel with Binary worked fine when I used QXP 6. If you need a better preview QXP has a high-res preview built in anyway which you should probably use for positioning.

tif & jpeg preview are best, Mac 8-bit/Pixel will not render if the Quark file is past over to PC. When playing with the V7 beta no improvements were made to tif handling I think it took all the effort to make the psd import function. Haven’t bothered with the full release.
