Convert PNG to EPS with Transparent BG


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I'm new with this tool and don't have a lot of experience with eps files. In fact, I bought affinity strictly to use eps stock photos that I purchased for my business (instead of paying somebody else).

 

Anyway, one of the files was an XL jpg. So removed the background in another program, and converted to png with transparent bg. Then I opened in affinity, still had transparent bg, and exported as eps. Except when I close it, and reopen the new eps from affinity, it now has a white background. Yes, I did go to document setup and check "transparent". But it does nothing for the new eps.

 

Please advise?  Thanks.

Basically, this happens because the eps file format does not officially support transparency. There are workarounds, like mentioned here, but they are not reliable across all apps.
