1. Using Text

2. The Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) language file format is used to transfer PostScript language artwork between applications, and it is supported by most illustration and page-layout programs. Typically, EPS files represent single illustrations or tables that are placed onto a host page, but an EPS file can also represent a complete page. Because they are based on the PostScript language, EPS files can contain both vector and bitmap graphics. Like PostScript language files, early versions of EPS files contain only grayscale vector bitmap graphics, whereas later versions support color graphics and compressed bitmap images. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ PostScript language
