Help Opening an EPS file

Postby Wzards » Tue Feb 26, 2019 2:55 am

I recently downloaded an image from iStock, and when attempting to open the EPS file, since I didn't understand what I was doing, I somehow managed to open it through notepad. When I learned that you needed to use a vector software to open the file, I downloaded Inkscape, but now I'm unable to open the file through it. Is someone able to help me solve this issue? Thank you.

If you're on Windows, you need to install ghostscript.
