Denne referencemanual er ikke så tosset endda. Alderen ses på at Display Postscript er med. Det var vist mest Next computere, der gjorde det til en slags standard. Der var fx noget fnadder med halvtone-grafik, som moderne skærme har gjort helt forældet, såvidt jeg ved. Copyright issues og den bevidste undladelse af at gifte DPS med et vindues-system har gjort at det ikke overlevede så længe. MacOS bruger noget PDF i stedet, men i deres egen variant.
EPS kræver en bounding box og man skal fx tage hensyn til liniebredde hvis man har tegnet en ramme. En EPS må heller ikke have sideeffekter, som fx at abortere printjobbet. Man kan putte en Windows Metafile eller en TIFF med i en EPS, så et skærmbillede kan vise noget, der ligner.

Grundig, men lidt kedelig referencemanual. ( )

Denne referencemanual er ikke så tosset endda. Se fx afsnittet om Known Problems. Gad vide egentlig hvor mange linier kode, der var i postscript fortolkeren fra start af. ( )
