Encapsulated PostScript EPS (EPS) An extension of the {PostScript} graphics file format developed by {Adobe Systems}. EPS is used for {PostScript} graphics files that are to be incorporated into other documents. An EPS file includes {pragmas} (special PostScript comments) giving information such as the bounding box, page number and fonts used. On some computers, EPS files include a low resolution version of the PostScript image. On the {Macintosh} this is in {PICT} format, while on the {IBM PC} it is in {TIFF} or {Microsoft Windows} {metafile} format. [Spec?] (1995-01-04)
