Windows Forum / Windows XP / Photos / April 2004EPS Thumbnail View?
Hi All, We've got a few folders with images in various formats. When I switch to thumbnail view, I can see the thumbs for images in each format except EPS. Does anyone know if there is a setting I'm missing or if MS (or a third party) offers a plug-in that will allow EPS thumbnails to display? Thanks & Ciao, Tony XP and MS don't. Though office can if there is a preview stored in the file. In the past I've used Word's File Open dialog as a graphic manager. If using a file open always right click not double. I've not used it with EPS but have with CDR.

I'm using PhotoShop and have tried to save with a preview according to the Help instructions, but to no avail. I also tried the way you suggested via Word and a line of code exists that looks to me like a preview is stored with the image: %AI3_DocumentPreview: PC_ColorTIFF But still no luck. Any other suggestions? Thanks, Tony XP and MS don't. Though office can if there is a preview stored in the file. In the past I've used Word's File Open dialog as a graphic manager.

Ask adobe if they have a thumbnail viewer for XP. They might want you to use their pathetic thing they offered with the new version or acrobat reader. That would do it I'd imagine.

One of the people posting to that thread created a reg hack, but I couldn't get it to work. It appears that there are a lot of people who miss this functionality & are upset that Adobe's not addressing the issue. It sounds like MS is pointing the finger at Adobe & vice versa. So, I now throw my hands into the air. It's not that a big deal, anyway. Thanks again for your suggestions. Ciao, Tony You might need to install the eps filter in word.

I'll say that again, I loathe adobe. I could say this all day. Anyway did you look at this piece of adobe crap http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshopalbum/starter.html It's free. I looked at it a while ago and was underwhelmed. Wondering what, if anything, it could do that explorer couldn't. Maybe show eps thumbnails is one thing? Anyway I hate adobe. What's really frightening is that I'm comfortabe in acrobat reader (I read a lot of technical and history books in this format). Now that I don't let integrate with IE it doesn't crash (you try and find your place in a 600 page book, esp as I may have 3 open and up to 30 html book length pages open - I read one by one till I finish so some may be open for a week or two.) Netscape 2 used to do this to me as well. My web site contains anti netscape code as revenge.
