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.
The SIXEL, or "six pixels", is a bitmap graphics format created by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) for their terminals and printers. Initially designed for DEC dot matrix printers like the LA50, it enabled the efficient transfer of bitmap graphics using a series of ASCII characters. Each character represents a 6-pixel high row, making it suitable for 7-bit serial communication. This format was later adapted for modern terminal emulators, extending its utility beyond its original scope.
