Thank you, Brynn. I actually did search that & saw several disussions, but I saw no resolution that worked for me when I tried them. So I was actually hoping someone had some new information. As for me, I don't know why my printer is requiring eps. No one uses it that I am aware of except Adobe.

Hmmm. Well then, I guess I switch back to my old print service & stick with vectoring in Inkscape & exporting to png. I appreciate the help & information.

The print service I am using (or trying to) requires eps. Most of the other users are using "Illustrator" which does save eps with transparency. So, yes, it does.

Using Inkscape 0.91 on LinuxMint 17.2 & Windows 7.
No matter what I do, I get a white background on image saved as .eps instead of transparent.
an anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
