PostScript (.ps)

The PostScript (PS) file extension stands for "PostScript", a dynamic page description language developed by Adobe in the early 1980s. Primarily used for desktop publishing, vector graphics, and printing tasks, PS files are particularly beneficial in ensuring high-quality output across various devices. As a precursor to PDFs, they encode textual and graphical content with great precision, facilitating consistent rendering on any platform. Renowned for their robust and flexible nature, PostScript files have played a pivotal role in digital typography and printing, underpinning many modern typesetting applications and output systems.

Printer Command Language (.pcl)

The PCL file extension, Printer Command Language, is a page description language developed by Hewlett-Packard (HP) in the 1980s. It is used to control printer features and describe the layout of text and graphics on a printed page. PCL files contain commands that instruct the printer on how to print the document, including details like size, layout, and resolution. Initially designed for HP's inkjet and dot matrix printers, PCL has evolved to support various printer types, including laser printers. Its simplicity and efficiency have made it a widely adopted standard in the printing industry.
