Placing an EPS created from Acrobat does not show the embedded images anymore.
Acrobat version: 10.1.16
Saved as EPS with: Postscript Level 3, Binary
The reason for this seems to be that the Affinities are not able to process EPS created with Postscript Level 3 generated in Acrobat. I made some tests and EPS made with binary / ascii and Postscript Level 2 are shown / opened correctly.
The same applies for AD. Some more tests with Illustrator and Indesign showed no problems with PS Level 3, so in the end it seems to be a problem generated from Acrobat and not Affinity. But I will post this anyway, because I invested quite some time and maybe perhaps eventually this is also causing problems opening other EPS files.
