set the retainImage of EPSObject to {true | false}
# Examples
set the retainImage of EPS 3 to false
# Description
Use the retainImage property to create a preview bitmap that can be seen on systems without Display PostScript.
If an EPS object's retainImage property is true, the non- PostScript preview image attached to the EPS file is kept with the EPS and used for display on systems that do not support Display PostScript.
If the retainImage property is false, the preview image is deleted.
This property is supported only on Unix systems with Display PostScript installed.
