I'm currently writing my thesis is to involve multiple maps, I thought to save them as .eps (vector image) to reduce the size but still keep high resolution.

So I try to import them as Word version 2013: Insert> Image. Once the .eps image is imported, it appears just a frame inside "can not display the image." I tried to convert pdf but still no image, just an empty frame. I Tried to search but I can not find a solution.

You can first convert your .eps files into .jpg and than import .jpg into your Word file. In order to convert follow the following steps:

  • I don't think it is well assumed that someone writing a thesis in word is going to have adobe illustrator and concurrently did not know adobe illustrator natively works with a vector image. – Damon Jan 08 '16 at 16:34
