Staff Sean P Posted March 29, 2021 Staff Share Posted March 29, 2021 The issue here is that the EPS files found on many stock sites are an Illustrator formatted EPS file which means it contains two streams of data: Regular native EPS data and an Embedded AI file. What this means is that when Illustrator opens the EPS it will read the Illustrator stream showing the file exactly as it was saved when created in Illustrator. However there will be Illustrator elements in the file that aren't compatible with EPS (for example Mesh Fills) and will get rasterised into pixel data in the EPS stream, when saved. But when opened in AI they appear correctly as vector objects because it is using the AI stream. When the EPS file is opened in Affinity we are unable to read the AI stream and instead have to open the EPS stream with the rasterised data.
