'''EPS Preview''' format (also called '''DOS EPS Binary''') is a variant of [[Encapsulated PostScript]] (EPS) format that is extended to also contain an image in [[TIFF]], [[Windows Metafile|WMF]], [[PICT]], or EPSI (a portable variant of EPS) format.
+
 
+
It is formulated as a simple binary container format, but is generally considered to be an actual EPS file.
+
 
+
== Format ==
+
Files have a 32-byte header, followed by the embedded EPS file, and the "preview" image file.
+
 
+
== Identification ==
+
Files begin with signature bytes <code>c5 d0 d3 c6</code>.
+
 
+
== Software ==
+
Refer to [[Encapsulated PostScript]]. Beware of viewers that display only the preview image, and not the full-quality EPS image.
