EPS & AI Analyzer - Check Bounding Box, Fonts, Colours and Preview

How to analyze an EPS or AI file

Add your file. Drop one or more .eps, .ai or .ps files into the box, or try a sample. Nothing is uploaded.
Check the size. The bounding box gives the real artwork size in mm, inches and pixels at 72 and 300 dpi.
Read the print checks. Fonts, colour mode, spot colours, previews and missing bounding boxes are flagged.
Look deeper. Details lists the creator, version, fonts and colours; Structure maps every section of the file.

Sending to a printer? Ask whether they want fonts converted to outlines and CMYK - the checks tell you where your file stands.

Modern .ai files are PDFs with extra Illustrator data. Saved with "Create PDF Compatible File", most apps can show them.

Fonts not embedded - the printer swaps in another font. Convert text to outlines or embed the fonts.
RGB colours - fine for screens; printers convert to CMYK and bright colours shift.
Spot colours - Pantone or custom inks that need their own plate.
No bounding box - layout apps cannot place the file.
No preview - Word and InDesign show a grey box until it is printed.

Drop it in. The bounding box is converted to millimetres, inches and pixels at 72 and 300 dpi.

Details lists every font the file needs and whether it is embedded. Missing fonts get a warning - convert text to outlines before printing.

The analyzer reads the colour operators and the DSC colour comments and shows CMYK, RGB or mixed, plus any spot colours.

The creator line shows the app and version - for example Illustrator CC 2024 - read from the file's own comments and XMP.

It was saved without "Create PDF Compatible File", so only Illustrator can read it. The analyzer checks for this.

No. The file is read in your browser and never leaves your device.
