Without going home and finding Artline and reloading it and check
I cannot be sure, but...

Most of the problems that I have found with programs that save a file
as EPS, save with a bit-mapped image that Adobe Illustrator cannot
understand.  If I remember correctly, Artline save with a CGM bit-mapped
image.  If you can save the file without a bit-mapped image, it should
work.  You said that you got these file from another source.  You might
try asking them if they could save a few files without the image as a
test.  Or you could find someone with Artline that might help you.
