How can I export graphics to .eps without losing inserted text?

Posted 9 years ago

When I export a graphic that contains inserted text to .eps format, using a command like Export["Figure1.eps", %], the .eps is created but without the inserted text. How can I correct this?

On my system this gives and eps with text:

Export[NotebookDirectory[] <> "prova.eps", 
 Graphics[Text["hello", {0, 0}]]]

Is your problem sporadic or you never get any text at all?

There are certain incompatibilities between how Mathematica's graphics format works and how different vector graphic formats work. This makes importing and exporting between them somewhat tricky.

For some people it acceptable to avoid the problem by rasterizing the image, but that isn't acceptable for everyone.

There are several solutions to this posted online:
