DPI of Placed EPS Files Shown Differently Depending on Source Document Colour Format


Recommended Posts

I have three Designer Documents which are all 50mm x 50mm @300dpi...

  • Colour Format and Profile: CMYK/8 and PSO Coated v3
  • Colour Format and Profile: Grey/8 and Greyscale D50
  • Colour Format and Profile: RGB/8 and sRGB IEC61966-2.1

Export each is both PDF and EPS formats and then place each in a Publisher Document as .afdesign, .pdf and .eps files. All (more or less) are shown as 50mm x 50mm @300dpi once placed apart from the Greyscal and RGB .eps files which are both shown as...

and as 72dpi in Resource Manager. Clicking Original Size reduces the .eps files to 12.02mm x 12.02mm @300dpi.

The CMYK/8 .eps file is displayed correctly with no scaling issues when placed but neither the Grey/8 or RGB/8 .eps files are. The PDF files exported from the same Designer documents are all displayed correctly, at the right size and dpi when placed in Publisher.

@Gabe,

This is what I'm seeing consistently, basically for both the Greyscale and RGB EPS files, Resource Manager is showing the incorrect Original Size and DPI when the EPS files are placed, which isn't the case with the CMYK EPS file which is shown correctly...

Files attached.
