Hi Everyone! EPS is a vector file format, so if you want to preserve the maths quality you have to save the EPS file as SVG de facto open vector file format (and container too), not the PNG one because is a bitmap file format!
Some suggestions follow. If you are using Windows you have to install Ghostscript to enable Inkscape to import EPS file. However, this is not enough because the Ghostscript installer (at the moment for the 10.x version) only put in the search system path its "bin" subdirectory. So you have to edit the system wide PATH variable and also add (not change!) the full path to the "lib" Ghostscript subdirectory (it's similar to the bin, but with "lib" instead of "bin").. If you are using PortableApps you have only to install Inkscape and Ghostscript to import EPS correctly, without setting any additional thing. If you are using Linux you have only to install Inkscape and Ghostscript. If you are using flatpak may be the same with "vanilina"/native (apt, ...) Linux. In any case in my experience with UN Italian Agenda 2030 sdg icon pack, LibreOffice doesn't import very well vector EPS files (they appear to be dotted and dirty) but perfectly import the Inkscape SVG exported ones at the top level vector quality!!! Last but not least, I think UN have to use only open file formats also when he speaks about Sustainability!!!
