Oh, no- it's Another Photoshop Question!

It's been so helpful reading everone's computer art problems, I wonder if
someone could help with mine. I've created art in Photoshop 3 for use in
Quark, but the clipping paths don't seem to work properly.

Following the book, I saved my images as EPS w/ clipping paths, but the
Quark user couldn't get them to work smoothly - said the path skipped
across sharp turns. As the images are botanicals meant to be pasted over
different backgrounds, this was a major problem, & I ended up just
recreating them in Illustrator, of course losing shading subtleties, etc.

Any advice would be most appreciated!

Thanks-
