PostScript

PostScript is a programming language used primarily for printing and graphic design. It describes the layout and appearance of text and images on a printed page. When you send a document to a printer that supports PostScript, the printer interprets the PostScript code to accurately reproduce the document's content. This technology allows for precise control over fonts, colors, and graphics, making it especially useful for high-quality printing. Developed by Adobe in the 1980s, PostScript has played a significant role in desktop publishing and is still used in many professional printing environments today.
