# Open an EPS file

Encapsulated PostScript® (EPS) can represent both vector and bitmap data and is supported by virtually all graphics, illustration, and page-layout programs. Adobe applications that produce PostScript artwork include Adobe Illustrator®. When you open an EPS file containing vector art, it is rasterized—the mathematically defined lines and curves of the vector artwork are converted into the pixels or bits of a bitmap image.

1. Choose File > Open.
2. Select the file you want to open, and click Open.
3. Indicate the desired dimensions, resolution, and mode. To maintain the same height-to-width ratio, select Constrain Proportions.
4. Select Anti-aliased to minimize the jagged appearance of edges, and then click OK.
   Anti-aliasing lets you produce smooth-edged objects by blending the edges of the objects into the background.
   You can also bring PostScript artwork into Photoshop Elements using the Place command and the Paste command.
