Understanding the ps and eps file formats

PS (PostScript) is a page description language developed by Adobe, widely used for printing and desktop publishing. It describes the layout and content of a printed page with high precision, making it a popular choice for printers and graphic designers.

EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is a subset of the PostScript format designed for embedding graphics into other documents. EPS files contain a single page and can include a preview image, making them ideal for transferring vector artwork between applications.

Why convert ps to eps?
