EPS 포맷의
탄생 배경.
EPS — Encapsulated PostScript — was Adobe’s way of letting PostScript code travel inside other documents. PostScript itself (1985) was a full page-description programming language used to drive laser printers. A raw PostScript file could do wild things like draw dynamically and print whole books. EPS (1987) was a disciplined subset: one page only, bounding box declared up front, no changes to the printer’s state, safely droppable into a QuarkXPress or PageMaker layout.
For two decades EPS was the vector logo format. Every agency handoff, every brand manual, every print shop expected "send me the EPS". Then PDF ate the world — a PDF can do everything EPS does and more, with better preview and compression — and Adobe themselves deprecated EPS as an import format in Illustrator 2020. EPS still works, but it’s a slowly fading legacy choice for most new work.
흥미로운 사실 및
트리비아.
An EPS file is technically a program written in PostScript, a stack-based language similar to Forth.
Every EPS begins with a magic line: "%!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0" — grep for it and you can spot them in a filesystem.
EPS files can include a low-res bitmap preview (TIFF or WMF) for editors that cannot render PostScript.
Because EPS is code, a malicious EPS could historically execute arbitrary PostScript operations — Illustrator 2020 dropped imports largely for security.
The "Encapsulated" in the name means "safe to embed in another document" — unencapsulated PostScript could reset the printer.
장점 및
한계점.
장점
- Vector-based — infinite resolution with no rasterization artifacts.
- Preserves exact CMYK colors, spot inks, and print-ready metadata.
- Universally accepted by professional prepress and sign-making workflows.
- Self-contained — fonts and images can be embedded inside the file.
한계점
- Legacy format — Illustrator 2020+ deprecated EPS import for security reasons.
- No built-in support for transparency — a longstanding pain point for designers.
- Web browsers do not render EPS; previews are often a low-res TIFF thumbnail.
- PostScript parsing is slow and memory-hungry compared to modern vector formats.
- Newer work is better handed off as PDF or SVG.
