Understanding EPS and IGES file formats

EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is a graphics file format used for vector images. It is widely used in the publishing industry for its ability to maintain high-quality graphics and text. EPS files are often used for logos, illustrations, and print designs.

IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) is a file format used for exchanging 3D models and CAD data between different software applications. It is commonly used in engineering and manufacturing industries to share complex 3D designs.
