Adobe Photoshop - Illustrator open in Photoshop?


Expert: Candice Anderson - 10/5/2009

Question
We are about to buy a large file that is made in Illustrator.  We only have Photoshop and I would like to work on the file in Photoshop since I do not know Illustrator.

Will it open in Photoshop? and will I be able to manipulate the file in Photoshop or do I need to buy Illustrator and go to class for it?

Thanks!

Answer
Is an .eps file that you are buying on a place like Istock.com or something like this?

Yes it will open in photoshop.

No, you won't be able to easily take away pieces of the picture like you would in illustrator. And you won't be able to make it any bigger.

However, you manipulate it how you would with anything in photoshop.

Honestly, it's not worth buying unless you want to work with it in Illustrator.
