[scribus] fails to import .eps file

[Teodor-Toma Silvestru Muntean]

I sugest save the file in .tiff format. I not see any reason to save the file in .eps, just if you need to have both vector and bitmap object (plus font sometime) in same file.I haven't knowlege about Gimp to save .eps in vector, or embed the fonts, the gimp convert all in bitmap (tiff), so save your work in .tiff  file format.

Hi I did as you suggested and I can see that executable is set to this which I assume is correct?
C:/Program Files (x86)/gs/gs8.60/bin/gswin32c.exe
I am using Gimp 2 to save the .eps files and I have saved several different ones. How can I tell if there is something wrong with them? I would appreciate any further help. Thanks!
