Resizing eps to eps with problems.

Post by francois_j »

I'm trying to resize an eps that has a clipping path embeded in CMYK colorspace.

First: when I resize "convert -channel cmyk -density 72 -scale 99999x200 test.eps testresize.eps" i get a color shifting. It looks like it's converted to RGB as what the color looks like but the file still in CMYK.

Second: I'm never able to keep the clipping path. How should I do it?


Regards.

Embedding profiles into an EPS image file is scheduled for the next point release. Perhaps in a week or two.

Very well them. And so what avout the clipping path? Can I keep the path thru scaling? It the moment I'm not able to keep it.

ImageMagick does not scale your clipping path. ImageMagick is primarly a pixel processor. We suspect it is not suited for your needs. You need a program that performs the scaling in vector space. Even better you can always wrap Postscript with a scale operation. That might be your best option.

A word about Vector Image formats also lists a number of alternative programs and utilities that convert vector images to vector images.
