What changes when you convert GIF to EPS

  • The EPS file wraps your picture at its original pixel size. It opens in vector and design tools, but the image is not traced into editable paths, so it does not become infinitely scalable.
  • GIF can be transparent but EPS cannot, so transparent areas are filled with solid white.
  • EPS stores a single image, so an animated GIF keeps only its first frame.
