Trying to Tile Existing EPS Images

Post by haggis777 »

Hi,

I am trying to simply tile an .eps file and I am running into some issues, and I was hoping I could get some help here. Here is the information for the file:

Code: Select all

Image: Label.eps

When I try to do anything with it (i.e convert, montage) it will use the sRGB color space, and I lose the vector (can't get bigger or smaller) with out really bad rastering. Here is the command I tried as an experiment:
convert -colorspace CMYK Label.eps Label6.eps

The resulting image is inverted in color (which I think I need to specify a color profile), and the colorspace is always sRGB:

Code: Select all

What I ultimately want is a tile of eps, that maintain there ability to vector (get bigger with out blurring out) and maintaining their color. Any help would greatly be appreciated.
