If the available Save Window As formats are not appropriate for your needs, then you may want to send your output to an encapsulated postscript (EPS) file. This file type is widely used by service bureaus and print shops. There is not a set export or save command for EPS files. You must set up a postscript printer driver and print the map or layout to a file.

Printing to an Encapsulated Postscript (EPS):

  1. From the Windows Control Panel, select Printers.
  2. In Printer Setup choose Add Printer. The Add Printer Wizard displays.
  3. Follow the wizard for the setup. Choose a postscript printer from the printer list, and select FILE as the available port. Enable the option to specify EPS.
  4. Once the postscript driver is installed on your system, use that printer to print the map or layout to a file from MapInfo Pro.
  5. On the HOME tab, in the Output group, click Print to open the Print dialog box.
  6. Under printer name, select the postscript printer. Click OK.
  7. The Print to File dialog box displays. Give your file a name and choose Save.
