[Gimp-user] Retaining Layers in EPS export



I realize that GIMP is primarily raster, but is there any way to
export a high-resolution (300dpi or higher) image that will retain the

Not primarily raster, is raster. A little search and not looking promising. 

This a bit old but probably correct https://forums.adobe.com/thread/485325

I can get a multipage tiff out using ImageMagick but not much of a solution,
Inkscape still looks the best bet for a stack of png images. Layer-to-image size
in Gimp to preserve position.

Trace bitmap for each layer, not a big deal: https://i.imgur.com/LHXUHhU.jpg Of
course might be different if you have a thousand of these to process.

Gives an SVG as attached. The text would be better as text rather than scanned
if you know the font (no text layers in your xcf file. Was this originally a
psd?)

layers (no automatic flattening) and resolution?  EPS files are
exported flat and the resolution is reduced dramatically in the
exported image.

How are you determining this? Open an EPS in Gimp and the default resolution is
100 (same with PDF and SVG) Up to you to set a value. Use 300 on that EPS you
have, for printing quality.

Is the object of the exercise to get a larger than 800 x 1200 image - that is
your gimp size for printing?
