Unable to add ai, eps, pdf files
The ai, eps, pdf files cannot be imported, or it prompted a message “Install GhostScript”. This may be because your device doesn't have the GhostScript plugin installed.

"Error launching installer" message prompted while installing GhostScript
This error may be caused that the GhostScript installer cannot locat its directory, this may be because the path contains non-english character or symbols. Please move the "gs921w64.exe" to other path (e.g., C drive directory), then run the installation program again.
I have GhostScript installed, but I still can't import ai, eps, pdf files, why?
If you have Ghostscript installed but the issue persists, common causes may be:
- You have multiple Ghostscript installed
Please check and clean-uninstall any Ghostscript apps on your device, and reinstall the 9.27 version, then restart Eagle to see if it works. - Incompatible file formats
The data and version of the file itself may be also related, please try opening the file in question with Illustrator or other apps, then export again and see if it helps.
