CUR to EPS Converter

CUR (Windows Cursor) is a specialized image format used primarily for mouse cursor images in Microsoft Windows operating systems. It's similar to the ICO format but specifically designed for cursor functionality.

CUR files store small images (typically 32×32 pixels or less) with transparency support and can include multiple cursor sizes for different display resolutions. They also contain a designated hotspot coordinate that defines the exact pixel that registers pointer position.

Unlike standard image formats, CUR files are designed to be loaded by the operating system for cursor display and interaction rather than for general viewing or editing as regular images.

CUR files can be viewed and edited with specialized icon and cursor editors like IcoFX, Axialis IconWorkshop, and Greenfish Icon Editor Pro.

Some general image editors like GIMP and Paint.NET (with plugins) can also open, edit, and save CUR files while preserving cursor-specific information.

For simple viewing, Windows Explorer will show thumbnails of CUR files, and most icon viewers can display CUR files as regular images.

To convert images to CUR format for use as Windows cursors, use our cursor converter that handles hotspot positioning and appropriate transparency settings.

For web developers, our tools can convert CUR files to modern formats like PNG or SVG for use as custom cursors in web applications while preserving transparency.

When creating custom cursor sets, our batch conversion tools can generate consistent CUR files from your designs, maintaining proper sizing and hotspot positioning across an entire cursor package.

EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is a vector image format used in professional printing and design. It can contain both vector and bitmap components, making it versatile for complex graphics.

EPS files are self-contained, structured PostScript documents with a preview image that can be placed into other documents. They're commonly used for logos, illustrations, and other graphics that need to be scaled without losing quality.

The format supports both RGB and CMYK color models, making it suitable for both web and print design workflows.

EPS files can be opened and edited using professional graphic design software such as Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW, and Affinity Designer.

For viewing only, you can use Adobe Acrobat Reader, Preview on macOS, or specialized EPS viewers.

Many image editing programs like Adobe Photoshop can also import EPS files, though they may rasterize vector content upon import.

To convert EPS files to other formats like PDF, SVG, PNG, or JPG, use our online image converter. Simply upload your EPS file, select the desired output format, and start the conversion.

For best results when converting vector EPS files to raster formats, specify a high resolution to maintain image quality. Vector formats like SVG will preserve the scalability of EPS content.

Professional design software like Adobe Illustrator provides additional conversion options with fine control over output quality and characteristics.
