Yes. It seems to work for me. I don't know how good it is, because I've nothing to compare it to. But on my 7500 with OS 7.5.2 it's quick enough and seems stable. It will convert the EPS file to PICT. I had a look with GraphicConverter 2.6 and it tells me that it requires EPStoPICT 1.2 or later to handle an EPS file; that may be another valid route. ftp://sunsite.ic.ac.uk/computing/systems/mac/info-mac//gst/grf/eps-to-pict-121.hqx should find it. If you already have GraphicConverter, it's 1011908 bytes big, which is a *lot* smaller than the full MacGS download. -- Peter
