Help_ I need to save an impose job as an eps file

I'm using preps 3.6.1. and i need to send our vendor a copy of a 6up die. They willl need the die as an eps file. I made the signature in templates and then sent to the Brisque to be impose. I know how to make a eps from the template and from a P.S file. But I don't know how to make an eps file that is already impose on the Brisque .

You could distill the ps to a PDF and save as an EPS from Acrobat.

Ok i did what you said and that only worked for the PS file for the one up die. I need to make a eps of an imopse job that i made from the one up die into a six up die and sent to the Brisque to be impose , when i tryed to distill the impose job it tells me it's not a readable file. So i did info on the file and it is a unix text file. how do i turn that uxix file into a PS file so i can distill it. Or i'm missing a step when saving befor i send to the brisque. Is there a way of saving jobs that you impose to be PS After there sent? I feel like i'm missing a step along the way.

A Brisque workflow involves ripping the single pages first, then adding the ripped pages to the Preps job, then sending the Preps job back to the Brisque, right?

What you want to do in this situation is to make a new job in Preps (not a Brisque job, though) and add your postscript into the run list, and use your 6-up template that you used on the original job. From here, you can print to file. Distill a PDF from your newly-made imposed postscript, then open in Acrobat and save as EPS.
