Fix Preview Icons for EPS files in MacOS (Ventura 13.2)

Ғылым және технология

NOTE: If this solution doesn't work for you, your best bet will be to batch convert your EPS files to SVG, which you can do with this free program - www.xnview.com/en/xnconvert/
EPS preview not working on your Mac? Try this solution!
KZread doesn't allow angled brackets in the description so replace the following parenthesis with angled brackets: (string)com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript(/string)
Instructions:
1) Copy the "Illustrator.qlgenerator" from "/System/Library/QuickLook" to your desktop or any other folder you have read/write access to.
2) Open "Illustrator.qlgenerator" by right clicking it and select "Show package contents".
3) Open "Info.plist" in the "Contents" folder with a text editor.
4) Find the line (string)com.adobe.illustrator.ai-image(/string)" (replace parenthesis with angled brackets)
5) Insert "(string)com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript(/string)" below it with the same indentation and save the "Info.plist" file. (replace parenthesis with angled brackets)
6) Copy "Illustrator.qlgenerator" to "/Library/QuickLook"
This solution worked on a Mac Studio running Ventura 13.2.1

    Looks like Apple broke this solution with the most recent updates. I'll look into it, but for now the best bet will be to batch convert your EPS files to SVG, which you can do with this free program - www.xnview.com/en/xnconvert/

    It doesn't open the EPS files, just makes it so you can preview them in the finder. However it seems recent updates have broken the solution. It may be easier to batch convert your EPS files to SVG, which you can do with this free program - www.xnview.com/en/xnconvert/
