FILE FORMATS
Photo files
are posted as high resolution (rgb) jpegs, so they might take awhile to download if you have a slow connection. Art files, such as logos, are posted in editable EPS and PDF formats.
Editable EPS
files can be placed in programs such as Quark and Pagemaker or opened in drawing programs such as Freehand and Illustrator which reverts them back to their original vector art. In vector, they can be easily manipulated and resized without loss of quality and colors can also be edited. Photoshop can also open this format, but will convert it to pixel-based art.
PDF files
can be opened in Adobe Acrobat and exported in the format you desire. You can download a free Acrobat Reader at:
PDF files can also be opened in drawing programs such as Freehand and Illustrator reverting them back to vector art. Photoshop will open PDFs as pixel-based art.
Metafiles
work best in Microsoft Office applications.
Illustrator
files can be opened in vector-based applications such as Macromedia Freehand or Adobe Illustrator.
