ImportEPS

Description

Imports an EPS file as a curvelist object. This command is accessed through the main menu, under File->Import->EPS.

This command supports the downloading of files off the internet. If the filename specified is a URL then the file will be downloaded locally before the command is executed.

Note: This command uses output arguments. C# and some scripting languages (such as JScript, PerlScript and Python) don't support arguments passed by reference so you need to use the best workaround for your situation:

For scripting languages this command returns an ISIVTCollection which you can use to get the output arguments.

For C# you can use the XSIApplication.ExecuteCommand method to call this command. ExecuteCommand packs the output arguments into a C# System.Object containing an Array of the output arguments (see Calling Commands from C#).
