There certainly are EPS -> GIF converters, if you truly want to go that way. In the Tk tradition, there are two main approaches to this need: 1. Use the Img extension, which knows how to render Canvases as .gif (and much else); 2. "Serialize" the canvas, and re-render it. Img is a venerable Tk extension, with a long, distinguished, history. It's not in the core only because of administrative issues not of interest here. It ought to work fine with Tkinter--but I know of no one who's succeeded in the attempt. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
