Hmm, you can't open an .eps-file this way. You have to go via the File->Import menu. AFAIK there is no way to import files on the command-line. You can only export files that way, e.g. svg to eps: $ inkscape filename.svg --export-eps=filename.eps --export-text-to-path or to png: $ inkscape filename.svg --export-png=filename.png -w600 -h400 You can also specify width and height this way. Could you please try to import your eps via the menu and report the result? Inkscape uses pstoedit for eps import, so that package has to be installed on your system. pstoedit itself is somewhat limited concerning import of bitmaps, but with an eps created by inkscape you should not have any problems.
