GIMP :: Opening EPS Files
Mar 30, 2013
I have a folder of about 3000 images to edit and they're all in EPS format. Not having Photo Shop on my computer, I turned to GIMP.
I located several sources on the internet, all calling for the installation of Ghost Scripts. After trying and failing, I did some more poking around and found that some users were having trouble with opening EPS files in the current version of GIMP, and solved the issue by installing a previous version.
Before I start flailing around with various versions, I figured it would be best to find a place where experts reside.

I've tried every smarty solution to get Gimp to open EPS files with ghostscript installed.
Nothing works. I'm on Windows 7 and have looked at some of the solutions on this forum. No luck. I'm wondering why Gimp has had such a long history with this problem.

A couple of times I was able to successfully open RAW (Canon CR2) files as layers to stitch together, but now when I try to open a RAW file I get error messages.

GIMP 2.6.10-1 on Debian 6 does not open JPEG files recently written by itself. The program freezes and the only way out is to reboot. Older JPEG files are opened as usual, and the problem files can be opened in Digikam and Fotoxx. A sample problem file is attached.

I have recently switched from GIMP 2.2 to GIMP 2.8. I'm using Linux (Mageia 3)
With 2.2, if I ran the GIMP from the command line, when I did File-> Open the file browser would open in the same directory that I had started the GIMP from.
With 2.8 the file browser opens in "Recently Used" and I have to navigate to the directory I want. Is there any way to make it open in the current directory instead?

I often use photoshop to open binary flat files, either 8 or 16 bit depth. In photoshop if I select open using photoshop raw format, a dialog box pops up asking what the image dimensions are (ie, 512x512), the number of channels (ie 1), the bit depth and the byte order.Is there any way to do this in GIMP, either native or with plugins... I dont think that the UFRaw will work as these files do not come from a camera-- they are images of satellite imagery that are just binary flat files.

My main user folder on the iMac is set to be shared (read/write, including all enclosed files) with my MacBook Pro. The job is a series of one-page InDesign files (they are newspaper advertisements). The IDD files contain a series of Illustrator files with linked PSD files.The idea is that we can both work on the .idd and .ai files in the same folder at the same time.
It's all working fine EXCEPT that whenever an .ai file is opened on the MacBook, Illustrator doesn't know where the linked PSD files are. We can update the link, but when the .ai file is then opened on the iMac and saved, the same thing happens the next time it is opened on the Macbook.
I don't want to embed the PSD files into the .ai files as sometimes I have to modify them and they can be linked to up to 20 .ai files.
G5 iMac OSX 10.7.5 / Macbook Pro OSX 10.8.2 / networked via FireWire cable / file sharing on, laptop user has Administrator status, all files are read/write, permissions include all enclosed files / CS6

For some reason My MyPaint has not been opening up. I tried to dis-install it and then re install it but alas it came to nothing. Why it stopped working, it was working fine and just randomly stopped and would not open.

Gimp opens up full screen. I looked in the preferences but couldn't find where I can have it open smaller.

I dowloaded Gimp 2.8, but the tool box is not on the opening screen. In fact, no windows are showing. I went through a couple of tutorials on the dockable windows. But I still don't see where the tool box window is. I see tool options and tool presets, but I don't see too box. How to get the default screen with the tool box to show up? It's my first time using Gimp. I accidentally downloaded 2.6 and noticed it did have the correct windows open. But I want to learn Gimp on 2.8.

I have created a psd file with GIMP (version 2.6.11) which I have created myself, opened and saved several times.
Today I try to continue my work on this file and I got error 17718 when trying to open the file. I have never opened this file with another application than GIMP.
- How can I prevent it from happening again?- Most importantly: How can I repair the file, so that my work is not lost?

I've been editing a whole lot of pictures lately for online listings. Suddenly ctrl-z is no longer my "undo" shortcut. When I use it now, I get "configure grid".
Clearly I've changed my shortcuts. I have no idea how. What I need to do is figure out how to fix it, so I can have ctrl-z be Undo again.

I created an image in gimp and flattened it before saving. I now want to edit some of the text in that image, but when I open in Gimp "As Layers" or just open it, it does not open in three different layers, like I had before flattening it. Am I doing something wrong. I saved it as a jpg file after flattening it.

I have GIMP 2.6 installed under Windows xp. When I try to open an .eps file, I get this error:
Error starting Ghostscript. Make sure that Ghostscript is installed and - if necessary - use the environment variable GS_PROG to tell GIMP about its location.
(Failed to execute child process (No such file or directory))
I then downloaded Ghostscript and went thru its regular Windows installation routine. I get the same error in GIMP trying to open an .eps file. How to set the variable GS_PROG and can't find instructions for this variable in the on-line GIMP manual.

Whenever I open an image in Gimp, it's just a little off colour. Then when I save it as an image file (usually png), it's even more off colour than what's displayed in Gimp. For example, if the image starts out with a grey background of 808080 (RGB Hex Value, 16-bit), in Gimp it's 7F7F7F, and when I save as a png, it's 6E6E6E (honestly, how does that make sense under any circumstances?). I've tried every combination of settings under colour management, to no avail. Once, I managed to get Gimp to display the correct colour, but when I saved it as a gimp file, and re-opened it, it was wrong again.

I recently purchased CS6 and loaded it to my desktop PC running Windows 7 and everyhing is fine.
I recently purchased a new laptop and loaded a second copy to it (running Windows 8). When I process a RAW file and try to open it in PS6 about every 4th file does not appear in the PS6 workspace. The file details show in the top left corner, the background layer appear, I supposedly can save this file but I cannot see anything. When I close PS6 and re-open it and re-open the ACR file, then open to PS6 if works fine.

I am running CS4. I have downloaded all recent upgrades. I have upgraded my camera body from a Nikon D90 to a D7000. Photoshop will not open the D7000 RAW NEF files. Jpeg files are fine.

Yesterday, before closing down, I uninstalled P/S 7, CS2 and CS3 to gain space, but do not know whether that action is relevant to my problem. Today I find that JPEGs will not open in Photoshop, and in Bridge only by going through Camera Raw. Photoshop will open tiffs, while Bridge will open some, but not all tiffs, through Camera Raw only. This problem follows many months of trouble-free operation of CS6.
My operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate. I have downloaded the latest patches for CS6, and have set the Bridge Preferences item on File Associations to Default.

I was sent a file from AI for reproduction in .eps format. Corel X6 distorts the art on import or open. The same file given to me as a pdf is fine. Corel Draw's strength is it's import abilities, and I expected X6 to cope with anything Adobe could throw at it from current releases.

Most of the ai files I receive show to be compressed and I cannot do anything with them. I think I should be able to open them with CD X4, which is installed alone and also in a bundle with my Wilcom digitizing program.
Someone indicated that the two installations on one computer could cause problems, but it is convenient having both readily available.

This problem just started recently on my PhotoShop 7.
I try to open an EPS file that was created in Illustrator or Freehand (or any other EPS that is not a Photoshop EPS), it opens up
as a blank document, like a transparent layer (you just see the
gray and white checkerboard background).
This happens whether I try to open the file by FILE>OPEN or if I drag the EPS file over the PS7 icon.
I tried everything and looked everywhere but without success.

I had bought CS4 and Lightroom from Adobe.
My raw files ( nef as well as dng) open fine on it, however when they are converted, there is a mesh in front of the image.
My jpg files previously adjusted in CS2 also do not open properly with same mesh in front of them.

I have two different psd files I cannot open. I last worked on these files May 30th. For each of them I completed a detailed mask, added a path and saved the files without changing the name. Today I went to work on my project and could not open either file.
When opening the 1st file I got this error message: Could not complete your request becaus the file is not compatible with this version of Photoship. When opening the 2nd file I got this error message: Could not complete your request because it is a not a valid Photoshop document.
