Art Explosion is among the most impressive professional clip art collections ever assembled: 40,000 images on five CD-ROM discs, accompanied by a paperback visual index. This folder includes a dozen sample EPS images from that collection.
Note: You can’t just double-click an EPS file to open it!
To open an EPS image, you need a graphics program (such as Color It, also included with this book), a page-layout program like PageMaker, or a word processor like WordPerfect or Word.
Then, you can open an EPS file in one of two ways:
Method 1
Launch the viewing program (such as Color It) first. Then choose Open from the File menu, navigate to the Art Explosion Sampler folder, open it, and double-click the image you want.
Or, if it’s a word processor or page-layout program, use the Import command.
Method 2
Drag the EPS file you want to open on top of the icon of a graphics program that can open EPS files.
