The drawing inside the EPS as a single PDF page, cropped to the artwork and still vector.
Both formats describe the same drawing; only one of them opens on every desk without a print workflow.
An EPS is a PostScript fragment meant to be placed inside something else. A PDF is a finished document: a client, a colleague or a print portal opens it in a browser tab, a phone viewer or a standard PDF app, with no import dialog and no question about which program owns the file.
The page is rebuilt as a PDF page rather than a picture, so curves stay curves and the file stays light. A 300 dpi image of the same artwork would weigh megabytes and would still soften when zoomed; the PDF one can be scaled to a metre without losing an edge.
The PDF page is the EPS bounding box, so the artwork has a real measurement in points and prints at the size it was drawn. Place it in a layout, print it at 100% or send it to a service and the proportions hold.
One page, exactly the size of the artwork the EPS describes.
The bounding box in the file is the page: no A4 sheet around the logo and no margin to trim afterwards. That is why a converted EPS drops into a document at the size of the design and why a 200 × 100 pt drawing prints as a 70 × 35 mm item.
Paths come across as paths and the text is drawn with its font embedded, so letters can usually still be selected and zoomed. A typeface the EPS only named but never carried is replaced, and then the substitute is what the PDF shows.
A PDF stores coordinates, not dots, so 72, 150 and 300 dpi all give the same page. The control stays visible because this is the same converter as the picture pages, but the result here is resolution-free by nature.
A drawing EPS is one page, so the download is one PDF named after your upload. A multi-page PostScript print file is converted from its first page, which is normally the sheet carrying the artwork.
Points decide the printed size, and that is the measurement a PDF page is built from.
The bounding box is written in points, so 200 × 100 pt is roughly 70 × 35 mm. Because the PDF page keeps those measurements, the artwork prints at the size the designer intended rather than at whatever a fixed paper size would allow.
A PDF drawn with vectors can be viewed at 1000% on screen or printed on a poster and stays sharp, so the question of an output resolution simply does not arise. That is the main reason to choose this page over a PNG when the destination is a printer or a document.
A PDF cannot be dropped into a chat window or a web form that expects an image. When that is the destination, EPS to PNG or EPS to JPG renders the page at the dpi you choose, and PDF to PNG does the same for the PDF afterwards.
What the file refers to matters as much as what it contains.
An EPS usually names its typefaces instead of carrying them. Without the original font the letters are drawn with the closest available match, which can shift line lengths and the look of a headline. Converting text to outlines in the source application — Create Outlines in Illustrator, Object to Path in Inkscape, Convert to Curves in CorelDRAW — removes the problem entirely.
Every conversion has a wall-clock limit so that one file cannot hold the server. A drawing with tens of thousands of paths, a mesh gradient or a large embedded bitmap may pass that limit and be stopped with a message. A PDF or SVG export from the original application is the faster path for artwork that heavy.
Three steps, no account and nothing to install.
Drag the file onto the box or click to choose it. One file per run, up to 25 MB. Files named
.eps or .ps are recognised even when the browser sends them as a
generic binary.
PDF is already selected, and the page takes its size from the bounding box in the file. The resolution control has no effect on a vector page, so there is no setting worth changing before you start.
The result keeps the name of your upload with a .pdf extension, opens in any PDF viewer and prints at the size the artwork was drawn.
A few checks that keep the page exactly as the designer meant it.
An EPS is plain text, and its first lines hold %%BoundingBox with four numbers
in points. If the converted page comes out with an unexpected margin or a strange aspect
ratio, those numbers explain it: they are the page you will get.
A PDF is the better file to send, but the EPS is what a print shop may still ask for, and neither one replaces the original drawing. If the artwork has to keep being editable as shapes, EPS to SVG gives you paths a design tool can open.
Some workflows still insist on EPS. SVG to EPS writes a drawing out as PostScript cropped to its artwork, and PNG to EPS traces a picture into shapes first, so a raster logo can be handed over in the format that is being asked for.
Yes. No account, no payment, no watermark and no limit on the number of conversions. A short rate limit is the only restriction, and it exists so that one busy visitor cannot slow the service down for everybody else.
The page is the bounding box recorded in the EPS, so there is no A4 border and no margin. A 200 × 100 pt drawing becomes a page about 70 × 35 mm, which is exactly the size it will print at and the size it takes when placed in another document.
No. The conversion happens on the server, so no design software is needed on your machine to make the file, and the PDF that comes back opens in any viewer. Any EPS or PS file up to 25 MB is accepted, including older PostScript documents from before PDF was common.
One file per run, up to 25 MB, and the first page is the one converted. Text is drawn with the fonts available, so an EPS that only names a typeface shows a substitute unless the text was outlined first, and a file with an extreme number of paths can reach the time limit and stop with a message.
Files are processed on our server and not stored. The EPS is opened once, the PDF is returned to your browser and nothing is kept afterwards, so the download is the only copy of the result and no account is linked to it.
