Convert IGS to EPS

Understanding IGS and EPS file formats

IGS (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) is a file format used for exchanging 2D and 3D models between different CAD software. It is widely used in engineering and design industries for sharing complex models and designs.

EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is a graphics file format used for vector images. It is commonly used in the publishing industry for high-quality graphics and illustrations, as it can be easily scaled without losing quality.

How to convert IGS to EPS

Converting an IGS file to an EPS file involves transforming a 3D model into a 2D vector image. This process is useful for creating illustrations or diagrams from 3D designs. Here are the steps to convert IGS to EPS:

Best software for IGS to EPS conversion

One of the best software options for converting IGS to EPS is Autodesk AutoCAD. AutoCAD is a powerful CAD software that supports a wide range of file formats, including IGS and EPS. To convert an IGS file to EPS in AutoCAD, follow these steps:

• Open the IGS file in AutoCAD.
• Go to File → Export → Other Formats.
• Select EPS as the output format.
• Choose the desired settings and click Save.

Another option is CorelDRAW, which is also capable of handling both IGS and EPS formats. The process is similar, involving opening the IGS file and exporting it as an EPS.
