With Ghostscript you get the most complete PDL interpreter solution in one product. Ghostscript is a Page Description Language (PDL) interpreter and industry leader in PDF, PostScript, PCL, and XPS rendering and conversion.
From its beginnings as the first independent open source (GPL) alternative to Adobe's PostScript product, Ghostscript has continued to grow and evolve, and is now widely recognized as the de facto standard implementation of the PostScript and PDF languages. In fact, a June 2016 report from Adobe and the PDF Association stated that open source Ghostscript was the third-largest creator of PDF files in the world, behind Adobe and Microsoft.
With the release of version 9.26, it became the first PDF interpreter to support reading and rendering of files in the new PDF 2.0 specification. Updates to the Ghostscript codebase include UTF-8 improvements, page-level output intents, black point compensation, and halftone origins.
Multi-platform support - including Unix, Linux, Microsoft Windows (95 and later), Mac OSX, and VxWorks.
Extensive set of modules – libraries, backend file formats and device drivers – for further customization and flexibility.
Versatile - Deployed on host-based, embedded and cloud solutions.
– Embedded in printers, MFPs and RIPs
– The engine in most major file management systems
– Engine in many leading PDF generators and tools
- Provide cloud solutions to key partners
Compatibility - A fully compliant interpreter that accepts any legal PDF, PostScript, PCL, or XPS file that conforms to the published specifications for those languages. Recognizing that vendors have implemented undocumented extensions to these languages, we provide a service to customers by implementing such extensions in this tool, wherever they make business sense.
