ما يميز .PS

PostScript was the first device-independent page description language, allowing documents to be rendered identically on any PostScript-compatible printer or display. It operates as a full Turing-complete programming language with control flow, variables, and procedures, making it far more powerful than simple markup formats. PostScript Level 2 (1991) added color separation, composite fonts, and improved memory management, while Level 3 (1997) introduced smooth shading and better PDF interoperability. Although PDF has largely replaced PostScript for document exchange, PS files remain essential in professional printing workflows and prepress pipelines. Many modern printers still accept PostScript input, and tools like Ghostscript provide robust interpretation and conversion capabilities.
