Related QuestionsWhat is PostScript?
Priority Copy: FAQPostScript is a Page Description Language (PDL) - in other words, the PostScript code described everything you see printed on the page including graphics, text and layout.

Related QuestionsPrepress FAQ - Central Plains Book ManufacturingDeveloped by Adobe Systems, it is a programming language that is independent of any layout software. To understand the main advantages of postscript, you must be aware of the differences between vector graphics and bitmapped graphics. Postscript is an object oriented language -- it responds to text and graphics as collections of geometrical objects, not a bit map. For instance, printing a postscript graphic on a 600 dpi laser printer will look much better than on a 300 dpi laser printer.Related Questions
