Yeah, eps seems a very useful addition, please!

Still not implemented! Shame.

Batch export EPS from asset export panel. 2020 and I can't batch export EPS files. EPS files should be able to maintain the artboard name and be batch exported individually from one Ai file. Adobe, comon.

This is a good idea, seems like the export for screens ought to be able to export any file format illustrator is natively capable of 'saving'.

That said, I don't use eps at all anymore since we switched to PDF workflow at my company a couple years ago. Anybody who thinks eps is "essentially the same as" PDF is in for a massive shock when you start working in prepress doing color management and matching for demanding customers, or just preflight in general.

I would want the option to export as .eps as well so I can bring them into AE to make trim paths

Angie, while that is a good option, and I appreciate your bringing it up, it may not be relevant depending on any given person's workflow.

I often build out a lot of art on a single artboard, and export it out individually using the asset export interface.

If I could export it out as .EPS's that would, when needed, be of a great help to me.

And, at the end of the day, this isn't actually a technological hurdle or anything. There's no reason not to do this. It's a win win, and we already know Illustrator is capable of exporting files to .eps. And of batch exporting assets.

Why can't it combine the two? (it can - they just haven't prioritized adding it yet)

Thanks, Angie, I already know that but when you're designing 182 logo variations in one file and then having to create a new file with 182 artboards and naming all of these artboards only to export them in EPS format is a lot of UNNECESSARY work.

Good point, Angie, but the idea is to have the ability to export multiple file types of the same ai document in one shot

You can export all your artboards as individual .eps files by just going save as > click use artboards & all

It will make the world a better place!

This shows another misunderstanding of what Illustrator is often used for. Come on Adobe, this is easy!

Yeah I'll just be exporting 9 files as .eps one at a time. C'mon guys.

Frankly there's really no reason not to open up the full suite of file formats that Illustrator is already capable of exporting to. Why is it arbitrarily limited via this panel?

YES, PLEASE

Yes please, just what i need.

actually this would be need because i do different ideations on multiple artboards. it would be nice to simply drag all the options into the asset export window and instantly have something our vendors can use!
