URGENT: .cps extension

[Emc2]

The guy I'm doing a website for just sent me the logo for his restaurant, but it's in .cps format! A google search brought up that it's a colored postScript file, but I can't seem to open it!

He sent me this file, and now I need it changed into .jpg, .gif, .png, .anything that a normal program would open! This is Uber-important-shame-on-you-if-you-don't-try urgent!

Thanks in Advance!

This is just a shot in the dark but you can see if The Gimp will open it:

Try this.

Goto http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/AFPL/get800.htm

and in the section named Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000 or XP get the files for "Ghostview" and "GSview".

That should allow you to view and convert postscript files. I'm not sure what formats it will convert to but I believe one of them is PDF. If you can get it into PDF format then you can open it with Photoshop.

[Emc2]

still nothing gives some errors while converting to any file type.

[FalcomPSX]

have you tried ACDSee?

[OuTpaTienT]

Emc2, does GSview open the file? If so then it works.

Don't convert the file. Just do "save as" and save it as an EPS file. Then open it with Photoshop.

[Emc2]

hmm...didn't think about acdsee...I'll check it out

GSView opens with this message:

GSview 4.4 2003-04-04

Then photoshop gives:

If you want, give me the file, let me try.
