How to get EPS-files showing in PGS with PGS

I figured out a way to get an copy of EPS showing in PGS without using
expensive programs.
Well, sort of...

Load an EPS-file into a document. It is shown as a crossed box.
Now print it as a PS-file with the Send to: PostScript file after
selecting a proper PPD (One of Adobe which came with PGS 5.0.4.4 and higer).

This PS-file must be made into a PDF-file. I use Adobe Installer, but
there are more free utilities to do this also.

If it worked, you can load this PDF-file into PGS as a document.
Only the colors don't match (not even close, Deron. Are they mixed up?),
although they seem to be okay in the PDF-file itself.

Hey, Theo, PGS has an option to make it a PDF-file (menu File / Save as
PDF...). Yes, but this PDF-document stays empty...

Good luck,

Theo

Deron, the colors are mixed up. They are loaded as CMYK and should be in
RGB.
From an old e-mail (February 2007!):

Observation in PGS:
C somehow always is 0.
M percentages should be in R.
Y percentages should be in G.
K percentages should be in B.
