Hi everyone, please forgive me my ignorance, but I struggle with a square outline on a vector. I set a page to be 5000px x 5000px. I increased my white working area accordinly. I save it as a .eps file. But when I open a fineshed vector in an Illustrator I see square outlines there. Obviesly something went wrong. I tried everthing. Any advise, help appreciated. Thanks a lot

Are you trying to make something like the two files I have attached ? 

I'm not sure why you set the page to 5000px x 5000px ? 

Turn on snapping to page. Drag a square from the top left corner to the bottom right corner. Clear the square fill.

Start pressing the '>' key until the rectangle has grown to a size you would like.

Then press Ctrl+Shift+R to resize the page to the outside of the rectangle. 

Then save.

[edit : If you want the square to be a white background square, set the fill to white and press the 'end' key to send it to the bottom of the stack]

Thanks for the help Inklinea. I forgat to mention that I dont see that square in inkscape, only when I open in the illustrator. Maybe enclosed print screen says more. It has to be 5000 x 5000px. Thanks again

In Inkscape it sounds like you have rogue object. Try pressing 'tab' which will cycle through any invisible objects. Then when highlighted press 'del'

If you post the svg I can look at the code.

Inklinea thanks, I tried tab key and then delete but did not work. Enclosed is SVG file. Thanks a lot

Layer>Layers - the layer containing the small white square has been set to hidden ( the eye symbol is closed ) 

Also - if you want to reset the grey page background back to white, that can be done via File>Document Properties and click the swatch at the bottom of the page pane.

Inklinea I appreciate your help, but since I am a newbie I am still having truble with that square. I deleted square at the top left corner, but there is anothor one in the middle, see jpeg, also if i click the swatch at the bottom I get white whole working space, not just page 5000 x 5000px. Thanks a lot ones again

I just found up, that if I used default inkscape working page, and save it as .eps there is no square-rectangle object in the file, while opend in illustrator. BUT If I pick 5000 x 5000px working page I get image above with a white default page. How to delete this page, what I dont see in inkscape? Thanks.

SOLVED! On document properties window i did not resize page to drawing or selection, thus default page was underneath, since new page was 5000 x 5000px.
