The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: The message "Contains Data for PostScript Only" appeared as a user tried to view an EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) file. The error appeared whether the user viewed the document through the Graphics Edit Screen (Alt-F9, 1, 1, 9) or View Document (Shift-F7, 6). The error indicates the graphic is straight EPS, which only contains print codes. This is why it cannot be viewed in WordPerfect, or for that matter, DrawPerfect. This file can, however, be printed. Similar EPS files can be viewed if they contain a TIFF header. Normally, EPS files can only be printed on a PostScript printer. However, if the file contains a TIFF header, the file can also be printed on a non-PostScript printer.
