[Data Objects] EPS accepted in DAM but blocked in image / image gallery fields (allowed file types mismatch) #167

Description

@MomodouBerlemann

Affected Version

2026.1

Affected capability

Data Objects

Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open a data object with an Image, Image Advanced, or Image Gallery field (e.g. product).
  2. Try to upload an .eps file via the field's file picker — observe that .eps is not among the accepted types (e.g. *.gif; *.jpg; *.jpeg; *.png; *.bmp; *.webp; *.svg; *.tiff; *.ico).
  3. Try to drag & drop the same .eps file from the local filesystem onto the image field / image gallery — upload/assignment does not happen.
  4. Open the Asset Tree (DAM) and upload the same .eps file via file picker or drag & drop from the local filesystem — upload succeeds.
  5. Drag the uploaded EPS asset from the Asset Tree into the image field — assignment works without issue.

Actual Behavior

Actual Behavior

EPS files cannot be uploaded directly to image / image gallery fields — neither via file picker nor via drag & drop from the local filesystem. The field appears to use a restricted set of allowed image file types that excludes .eps.
In the DAM, EPS upload works as expected (file picker and drag & drop from PC). Once uploaded, the asset can be assigned to image fields by dragging it from the Asset Tree.
This is inconsistent with Pimcore's own documentation, which lists EPS among supported image formats for assets:
https://docs.pimcore.com/platform/Pimcore/Assets/

Images - all common formats such as JPG, PNG, EPS, PSD, TIFF, SVG, and more

Expected Behavior

Expected Behavior

Image / image gallery fields should accept the same image file types that Pimcore supports in the DAM — including EPS — for both file picker upload and drag & drop from the local filesystem.
Users should not be forced to upload EPS files to the DAM first and then assign them via the Asset Tree as the only viable workflow.

Additional context

Reported internally during product image setup. Current workaround: upload EPS to DAM → drag into image field.
Both symptoms (file picker rejection + failed drag & drop from PC) likely share the same root cause: a too-narrow allowed file type filter on image fields, not a general DAM or EPS processing limitation.
