Mar 9, 2017 at 21:11 comment added Alexey Popkov Jens' workaround works in version 11.0.1: ImportString[ExportString[Graphics[Inset[axes,Automatic,Automatic,Scaled[1]]],"PDF"],"PDF"]. But for "EPS" it kills the system taking all available physical memory (more than 6 GB before I killed Mathematica.exe)...
Mar 9, 2017 at 20:57 comment added Alexey Popkov ImportString[ExportString[axes, "EPS"], "EPS"] returns $Failed both in version 10.4.1 and 11.0.1 on Windows 7 x64 (in the both cases ExportString returns something similar to your version 11 output). In version 8.0.4 it works correctly.

Mar 9, 2017 at 15:48 comment added george2079 you might see if "AllowRasterization"->False does anything.
Mar 9, 2017 at 15:32 comment added Quantum_Oli @george2079, you are right the backslashes indeed appear to have happened on upload! I've posted a screenshot of the output as it appears in MMA. The length of the garbled lines appear to be fixed.

Mar 9, 2017 at 14:56 comment added george2079 are all the backslashes terminating the line ends really in the mathematica string? There are two issues here, one the result is rasterized, two the result is corrupted by being wrapped to 70 columns. The backslash is not valid postscript. That may have happened on upload to pastebin though.

issue confirmed by WRI
Mar 9, 2017 at 14:17 comment added Pillsy OK, let's make it a bug then.
Mar 8, 2017 at 20:19 comment added Quantum_Oli Having spoken to Wolfram this is now a known issue, introduced in 10.4 and persisting to 11.

Mar 1, 2017 at 15:37 comment added Pillsy Dunno a workaround, but I'm for marking this as a bug.
