Convert EP to PNG

Understanding EP and PNG file formats

EP files are not a widely recognized standard file format. In many cases, users may refer to EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) files, which are vector graphics files commonly used in professional printing and graphic design. If you meant EPS, these files can contain both vector and bitmap data and are ideal for high-resolution graphics. PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a popular raster image format known for its lossless compression and support for transparency, making it suitable for web graphics and digital images.
