    Hi All

    NOOB question, This is my first time using Inkscape

    I'm using it on a windows 10 machine

    When I go to open an EPS file, no EPS files appear in the browse window, even though there are EPS files in the folder Im looking in

    Its as though Inkscape cannot open EPS files

    What am Iย doing wrong?

    Many thanks

    Out of curiosity, can you right-click on an eps file in Windows explorer and use "Open with... Inkscape"?

    No, thereโ€™s no option to use ink space to open it if I right click in windows

    Hi Tyler,

    I followed the instructions in theย FAQ that you pointed me to and I can now open EPS files

    Many thanks

    (One note, the link to the Ghostscript page in the FAQ does not work)
