In the meantime I'll revert back to the older Inkscape from official repositories (instead of Flatpak) if I really need to open EPS files.
Just in case, I've pasted its contents here. There is an "extension-errors.log" in the configuration directory which listed several errors, but nothing specific to EPS. Thank you I'll give your suggestions a try. Or, if you don't get an answer, ask on the Inkscape devel mailing list?Īre there any other error messages when you start Inkscape via command line (with GUI)? When you try to open a pdf/ps/eps via GUI? Anything that smells like it could be related in extensions.log (in your user Inkscape configuration directory)? Can you ask its author here:Īlso please include your ghostscript version number and your libpoppler version(s) ("ghostscript -version" and for the other, ask your package manager - on Ubuntu it would be "dpkg -get-selections | grep libpoppler", don't know what it would be on RHEL.) And if the image appears cut-off like what you showed above, increase the image res to way up like 5,000 x 5,000 to see the entire image. (youll need to experiment with the save as DXF options a little to get the best results). Gimp likes to open EPS at 100DPI, not sure why. A better way is to use a program called Inkscape (you could call it an open source Adobe Illustrator clone). Under Other options select EPS Viewer and then check the box next to Always use this app to open. Set a higher resolution when opening your EPS file, like 300DPI. software such as Microsoft Word can also.

EPS Viewer doesn’t come with any preferences, so if your EPS files doesn’t automatically open with it, the right-click on the file and choose Open with > Choose another app. Inkscape: If you need a free way to open and edit EPS vectors, Inkscape makes it possible with a solid amount of tools.
