Rendered from the PostScript in your browser · no Illustrator needed, nothing uploaded

Quick Tool Overview

The EPS Viewer runs the PostScript inside an EPS file with Ghostscript compiled for the browser, so the actual artwork is drawn at 72 to 600 DPI rather than a small embedded thumbnail. It shows the artwork size in millimetres, the program that made the file and its colours, and saves PNG, JPG or WebP. Nothing is uploaded.

About the EPS Viewer

EPS is still the format print shops, sign makers and stock sites hand around, and it is the one ordinary computers are worst at opening. An EPS file is a small PostScript program; showing it properly means running that program, which is why Windows shows a blank icon and most online viewers only show the tiny low-resolution thumbnail some EPS files carry.

This page runs the PostScript. It uses Ghostscript — the same interpreter behind most print workflows — compiled to run inside your browser, so the artwork is drawn at the resolution you pick, from 72 DPI for a quick look to 600 DPI for checking small text, trimmed to the artwork's own bounding box. EPS files written by Illustrator carry a PDF copy of the artwork, and those open faster still and can be saved as SVG or PDF too. The details panel shows the size in millimetres and inches, the program that made the file, its process and spot colours, and which previews are embedded. Save the result as PNG, JPG or WebP. The file is never uploaded; the engine downloads once and your browser keeps it.

Key features of the EPS Viewer

Renders the real PostScript

Ghostscript draws the artwork itself, not the low-resolution preview most viewers stop at.

Up to 600 DPI

Zoom into small print and fine lines, trimmed to the artwork's own bounding box, on a transparent or white background.

Illustrator EPS, faster

EPS files from Illustrator carry a PDF copy of the artwork, which opens instantly and can be saved as SVG or PDF.

Print details

Artwork size in millimetres and inches, process and spot colours, creator and embedded previews.

Nothing uploaded

The engine downloads once and runs in the tab; the EPS itself never leaves your device.

How to use the EPS Viewer

  1. 1

    Drop in the EPS

    Plain, Windows-header and Illustrator EPS files all work, as do .ps PostScript files.

  2. 2

    Wait for the first render

    The first file loads the PostScript engine, about 15 MB; any preview stored in the EPS is shown meanwhile. After that, files open in a moment.

  3. 3

    Choose resolution and background

    300 DPI is a good print proof. Keep transparency, or put the artwork on white.

  4. 4

    Save it

    Download PNG, JPG or WebP with the DPI written into the file, so it prints at the artwork's real size.

Frequently asked questions

Drop it on this page. The PostScript inside the EPS is run by Ghostscript compiled for the browser, so the real artwork is drawn — not just the small thumbnail — with nothing to install.
