Re: Importing EPS

[Jef Huey <jhuey(at)henninger.com>]

Hi Folks,

Trying to do the same thing Mr. Skinner was.  Import either an EPS or an 
.ai file into 3D DVE.  Getting error message:

"Cannot open EPS file."

The EPS file in question opens fine in Photoshop CS.  Are there versions 
of EPS that DS cannot open?

Thanks,

Jef
