EPS Graphics

Does anybody have a way to print and Encapsulated Postscript image from
Delphi. In addition does anybody have a sample of how to read the TIFF
preview image that is stored with the EPS file.

Scott,

I asked this very same question a few weeks ago and got no replies.  I'm sure
someoned must know how to do it.  If you do, _please_ answer.

Regards,
Paul Harrington.

(P.S. Sorry not to be of any help)

Re:EPS Graphics


The main problem I think is the way that EPS graphics operate. No only
is there raw data in the file, but there are also a large amount of
postscript commands - too many for a simple mail message to explain. In
fact the postscript language itself is now in its 3rd version. Without
having a component that can understand and parse all the postscript
information, you'll have a tough job. EPS graphics rely on the
postscript information to generate an image to a postscript printer. It
would be easier if you worked with another image type probably.

You've roused my interest. I think I'll see what I can find out now for
myself.
