Feature Representation

In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (see About Feature Type Attributes), this format also adds format-specific attributes (Format Attributes).

EPS features consist of geometry but no user-defined attributes, although there are special attributes to hold the type of the geometric entity and its display parameters. The feature type of features written to EPS is ignored.

All EPS features contain a eps_type attribute, which identifies the geometric type. Each element type also has a color associated with it. Depending on the geometric type, the feature contains additional attributes specific to the geometric type. These are described in subsequent sections.
