Van,

EPS files in FM are always "passed through" (unless your using a unix
version with display postscript - in which case it actually is
rendered) and only the EPS preview header is rendered. It is possible
that, instead of the TIF format, these preview headers may be a WMF or
PICT variant that have colour (hence possible definitions generated).

If you can't open these in Illustrator (any version), then I suspect
the preview is the culprit. You may want to either look for a utility
that strips the preview from the EPS or pipe the EPS through Distiller
to get a PDF and re-save as an EPS to clean it up for use in
Illustrator. 

Note: direct editing of a PDF in Illustrator is not recommended. Dov
Isaacs has commented on this before in several forums and user groups.
