Tips for working with EPS Files

The EPS file generated by jalview contains vector + graphics which are directly editable in graphics applications such as + Adobe Illustrator.
When importing an EPS into to a Microsoft office document, a snapshot image of the + file will be displayed which often looks blurred. Right-click the + image and choose "Edit image." to convert it to word + drawing objects which give a truer WYSIWIG representation. +
+ Mac OSX users will find that eps files are automatically converted into + PDF files. +
