What is Postscript?

PostScript is a page description language (PDL) primarily used in electronic publishing and printing. It's a Turing-complete programming language designed to describe the appearance of text, graphics, and images on printed pages. PostScript interpreters are commonly embedded in printers, allowing them to render complex documents based on the PostScript code they receive. It's widely used for high-quality printing and document exchange.
