AI to EPS
Free online AI to EPS converter. Convert AI to EPS and get an EPS vector for print shops, sign makers, Illustrator and CorelDRAW. Reads Adobe Illustrator files without Illustrator. Runs in your browser: nothing uploaded, no sign-up.
Works with: Illustrator · CorelDRAW · Inkscape · Affinity Designer
Drop several files at once to convert the whole folder in one pass. Got a different format? A PNG, JPG, HEIC, PDF, SVG or DXF still comes out as EPS.
× removes a colour and its shapes; click a swatch to change it. Every format follows.

Batch
Every file is traced on its own at its own resolution, with the settings in the panel. A file converted here comes out identical to the same file converted by itself.

Machine output
Height follows the source aspect ratio.
Laser and Router follow the traced outlines. Engrave photo burns the picture itself, line by line, for photos and portraits.
Heat transfer vinyl is pressed face down, so it has to be cut mirrored. The second box is the overcut in millimetres: a drag knife starts each shape pointing the wrong way, and running past the start covers that stretch properly so the piece weeds out clean.
Beam or bit width. Left at zero the tool runs down the centre of the line, so a part finishes one tool width undersize. Set it and the path is offset by half, with holes offset the opposite way.
Holes before the part that holds them, so nothing comes loose while there is still cutting to do. Also shortens the travel between cuts.
See it on your product
Put this artwork on a 3D mug, tumbler, sign, phone case or canvas, turn it all the way round, or drop it onto a photograph of your own blank. The preview page has the product picker, the colours and the placement controls.
Open the preview and renderHow it works
Upload the vector file
SVG and EPS are read directly, their existing geometry is kept rather than re-traced.
Pick the output size
Print formats carry a real bounding box in points, so a print shop gets the size you intended.
Download
Preview the result first; EPS is shown parsed back, which is what a print shop will do to it.
AI to EPS converter: free and online
Convert AI to EPS in your browser: drop in a AI file and download the EPS. The file is converted on your own device and never uploaded, so this ai to eps converter is safe for private and confidential files.
AI is the Adobe Illustrator file format; modern AI files carry a PDF inside, which is what is read here. EPS is the PostScript vector format printers, sign makers and older design software expect.
Paths stay paths: shapes, colours and curves carry across without being turned into pixels, so the result is still sharp at any size.

Why it matters
Geometry preserved
A vector source is not run through the raster tracer. Its paths are read and re-emitted, so nothing is thrown away and re-approximated.
Real physical bounds
EPS and PDF output carry a bounding box in PostScript points sized to your stated width, not left in pixels for someone else to guess at.
Transforms handled
EPS files from Illustrator transform nearly every path. Those matrices are applied properly, including nested gsave/grestore, so nothing lands at the wrong scale.
Even-odd fills
Holes are written with the same fill rule the geometry was traced with, so a counter stays a counter.
Questions
How do I convert AI to EPS?
Drop your AI file on this page, check the preview, and press Download. The EPS is made in a few seconds, with no sign-up.
Is my AI file uploaded anywhere?
No. The ai to eps conversion runs in your browser, on your own device. The file never leaves it.
Does this keep my layers?
Colour layers are preserved as separate paths. Named layers and groups from the source application are not carried across.
What about embedded images?
An EPS or SVG containing an embedded bitmap is reported rather than silently half-converted, only the real vector geometry is converted.
Which PDF version?
PDF 1.4, with real path geometry. It is not a bitmap wrapped in a PDF container.
