Hi Rod:
I just ordered a porcelain dial to be made by a porcelain company. They also wanted the file in ESP format. ESP is a native Photoshop Elements format. I simply opened my file in Photoshop Elements and saved it as an ESP file. Easy! But you need to have Photoshop Elements to do this. (buy it if you don't have it, it's a great program. They might even have a free version online). Most of these engraving and sandblasting machines will accept PDF docs. I bet you if you asked the sand blasting company if they can use PDF too, that they would tell you that they can. John John L. Carmichael Sundial Sculptures 925 E.

Hi all, I want to design a sundial that will be sand blasted onto glass. Our local glass sandblaster say they need the sundial image to be in the Encapsulated PostScrip file format (filename.EPS). I have OpenOffice.org Draw software. It won't save the drawing with the extension of .EPS. Is there a converter that will convert OpenOffice.org Draw into .EPS files. This may not be easy as it needs to use vectors in the .EPS file. Will any of the Sundial Drawing software save the results in .EPS file format. Or is there a better way to generate Encapsulated PostScrip files for sundials. Thanks for your help, Roderick Wall.
