I'm attempting to write an EPS file to be used in DPT
applications such as QuarkXpress. It seems most DTP
applications use a low resolution bitmap image as a
proxy for on-screen display. This low res bitmap is
(or was?) stored in the resource fork of the EPS file
as a PICT bitmap.
I can produce an eps file with something like this:
data = [self dataWithEPSInsideRect: myRectangle];
[data writeToFile:myFile atomically:YES];
...however the resulting EPS does not contain a
preview, so QuarkXpress just displays a grey rectangle
instead of the image resulting in cranky designers.
Can anyone help me figure out how to get a preview
into an EPS file?
Thanks!
