and eps file is usually Encapsulated PostScript so here's what Word Help has to say:( note that it treats is as a graphic file)



Encapsulated PostScript graphics filter
The Encapsulated PostScript graphics filter (Epsimp32.flt) supports the Adobe Systems Encapsulated PostScript Specification versions 3.0 and earlier. The filter supports .eps images from tagged image file format (TIFF) and Windows Metafile (.wmf) embedded previews.

If an Encapsulated PostScript graphics file contains an embedded TIFF or Windows Metafile preview, a representation of the image appears on the screen. The quality of the preview depends on the resolution of the TIFF or Windows Metafile image embedded in the Encapsulated PostScript file when it is created. Low, medium, and high resolutions are generally available for creating an EPS file. The higher the resolution of the preview image, the larger the EPS file size will be. Because such previews are intended primarily to be used to position images on the page, resolution is often low. A high-resolution preview is not necessary because it is discarded when the EPS file is printed to a PostScript printer.

If an embedded TIFF or Windows Metafile preview is not included in the Encapsulated PostScript graphic you import, the graphic displays a message instead of a preview of the graphic in your document. However, the graphic prints correctly to a PostScript printer. If you print an EPS graphic to a non-PostScript printer, the preview image is printed as it appears on the screen.

Encapsulated PostScript graphics are designed for printing to a PostScript printer.
