- PAGESTREAM IMPORT MODULE
-
- Art Expression EPS import module version 2.2.1.
-
- Store this module in your Drivers path. (Normally, PGSTREAM/DRIVERS.)
-
- With this module, you can import Art Expression EPS files (those
- saved with the Save or Save As... commands) directly, without having
- to export your drawings as IFF DR2D or Illustrator EPS.
-
- PageStream has always had the ability to import Art Expression EPS
- files (AE EPS), but without this module, it imported them as EPS data
- blocks which were represented as boxes with crosses on screen and
- which would only print to PostScript printers. This module will
- import them and interpret the EPS file so that you can not see and
- edit them in PageStream, and print them to any type of printer.
-
- The only non-standard thing to note when importing Art Expression
- drawings is that the color names used in the drawing will be lost and
- numbered colors will be shown in PageStream. For example, Art
- Expression's 'White' will import as ArtExp000000FF. This will not
- affect the true color of the objects, or how they will be displayed
- or printed.
-
- If you have any problems importing an Art Expression drawing into
- PageStream with this module, first load the drawing into the latest
- version of Art Expression and then save it back out. Some bugs in
- saving EPS files were fixed in Art Expression 1.03, and reloading and
- saving a file can remove errors in the file.
