Encapsulated PostScript files can be exported in one of four ways: with no header or preview, with no preview, with a TIFF preview, or with a WMF preview. If you plan to export an EPS file and import it into a Macintosh application (which is typical when sending files to a service bureau), you should export with no header or preview.
