We have been using a range of EPS in our page output for a number of years. We have come to expect that it will conform to the general EPS rules; ie: identifying line, bounding box, etc ... in particular we expect that an EPS file will be 'well behaved' and play nicely with the rest of the PostScript page.

PhotoShop 7 is giving us very inconsistenct results, including changing the matrix of the EPS image itself (it's skewed on the page) as well as affecting the page position of the surrounding PostScript. We're getting more consistent results by placing the PhotoShop image in Corel and creating a new EPS, but that's not an efficient change ...

On analysis of the EPS text, I find new metadata in the form of XML as well as some PDF code following the final 'grestore % EPS grestore'. Removal of these does not affect the impact of these EPS files on the final page.

Any comments from Adobe? Dov?
