Corel x6 exporting empty EPS files

[Ian Schofield]

I'm using corel x6 and when i export to an eps about 90% of the time i'll get a blank file.
Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

I use Corel X5 but I always have "Selected Only" checked. If nothing is selected then it will be blank. Hope that helps.

We had that issue also. Finally figured it out (at least in our shop). Basically, Corel 6 takes forever to write .eps files (and save .cdr also). Even when your monitor shows the file is saved or exporting, it is still writing. Try this. Export a .eps file and wait 10 -15 minutes and see I'd you can open it. Then export same file again (under different name) and try to open it right away. Probably can't.
Now my guys allow 5 to 10 minutes or longer after saving/exporting before using. We can quickly export files under Corel 4. Must be a bug in 6.
