Hi there,

it seems that EPS support is broken in general. Even kword is not able to
store them.

I looked at the EPS-write-function in kimageio and found that, that the
function tries to store the image in an file instead of saving it in the
iodevice. I changed this and now the functions writes the image to the
store. But not the complete image, just about 2/3 of it.

When I try to open that store again kpresenter crashes (same with
kword). Even when I replace the buggy image in the store with a complete
EPS image this crash happens.

Any of the core developers with a hint how to solve this, otherwise I
will 'trial & error' till it works! ;-)

BTW: kview can open and display the buggy 2/3 EPS image I get... so it
doesn't seem to be completely corrupted.

Bye,

	Percy
