By the way, 4000x4000 px is 16 MP, not 4MP. You would need 2000x2000 px for 4MP.

How is it possible this is "impossible" EPS is "vector" format, therefore, canvas size has no effect on file size. Unlike "raster" format.

But you need to convince shutterstock that it is big enough. Please try a document DPI of 72 (not 300) as I suggested above and an artboard or document size of at least 2000 x 2000 px and I think you should be fine.

ciddiffinity Posted December 30, 2019 Author Posted December 30, 2019 I know .eps, .AI vb. vector formats how is it possible can be count with megapixels ! But shutterstock need it, before with Adobe Illustrator i set atrboard size 4000x4000 and it will be okay. But now even with Adobe Illustrator it not work ! What changed i don't understand that. Ayyway, today i want to learn don't need Adobe Illustrator for this, but i see impossible save .EPS file with Affinity Designer 4,6,8,20 megapixel ?! I will trying add screenshots here now. I hope that screenshots help for understanding my problem. Quote
walt.farrell Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 It is possible that the file saved by Illustrator includes proprietary .ai format data within the .eps file. That would make the file bigger in the number of bytes it contains. Did you try my suggestion of using 72 DPI for your document, and a document size of at least 2000 x 2000 px, and see if Shutterstock would accept it? If that doesn't work, perhaps try it with an artboard of at least 2000 x 2000 px, and a document DPI of 72, and let us know if it works.

I try artboard 6000x4000 or 4000x3000 pixel in Adobe Illustrator, but when i save .EPS interesting nothing changed all different artboard size files same visible ! Nothning changed in AdobeIllustrator CC2020... I add another screenshot Quote

micmi Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 Dear Affinity Team, I had the same happen to me when I tried submitting an EPS-file that I exported from Affinity Designer. I created a 3000x2000px sized document with 72dpi and exported it to EPS. When I upload it to Shutterstock, I get the message "The size of your artwork (not the size of the artboard) must be at least 4 megapixels.". Any idea what I could try? All the best, .michele Quote
