(EPS) An extension of the PostScript graphics file format developed by Adobe Systems . EPS is used for PostScript graphics files that are to be incorporated into other documents. An EPS file includes pragma s (special PostScript comments) giving information such as the bounding box, page number and fonts used.
On some computers, EPS files include a low resolution version of the PostScript image. On the Macintosh this is in PICT format, while on the IBM PC it is in TIFF or Microsoft Windows metafile format.
