GPL Ghostscript screenshot

Ghostscript is a package of software that provides: · An interpreter for the PostScript (TM) language, with the ability to convert PostScript language files to many raster formats, view them on displays, and print them on printers that don't have PostScript language capability built in; · An interpreter for Portable Document Format (PDF) files, with the same abilities; · The ability to convert PostScript language files to PDF (with some limitations) and vice versa; and · A set of C procedures (the Ghostscript library) that implement the graphics and filtering (data compression / decompression / conversion) capabilities that appear as primitive operations in the PostScript language and in PDF.

Ghostscript is written entirely in C, with special care taken to make it run properly on a wide variety of systems, including Apple Mac OS X, MS Windows, the wide variety of Unix and Unix-like platforms and VMS systems.

NOTE: The OS X binary has been built by Richard Koch.

What's new in GPL Ghostscript 9.20:

  • The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and incremental improvements.
  • Incompatible changes:
  • The planned device API tidy did not happen for this release, due to time pressures, but we still intend to undertake the following: We plan to somewhat tidy up the device API. We intend to remove deprecated device procs (methods/function pointers) and change the device API so every device proc takes a graphics state parameter (rather than the current scheme where only a very few procs take an imager state parameter). This should serve as notice to anyone maintaining a Ghostscript device outside the canonical source tree that you may (probably will) need to update your device(s) when these changes happen. Devices using only the non-deprecated procs should be trivial to update
