ghostscript-2.2.tar.Z - Package description:
This file, lib.doc, describes the Ghostscript library, a collection of C
procedures that implement the primitive graphic operations of the
Ghostscript language.
Ghostscript is actually two programs: a language interpreter, and a
graphics library. The library provides, in the form of C procedures, all
the graphics functions of the language, i.e., approximately those
facilities listed in section 6.2 of the PostScript manual starting with
the graphics state operators. In addition, the library provides some
lower-level graphics facilities that offer higher performance in exchange
for less generality.
Runs on MS DOS, too.
In release 2.2, most of the reported bugs in 2.1.1 have been fixed.
Major new features include:
save/restore
24-pin Epson driver
Band lists for high-resolution printers
The fonts have been remade, and improved slightly, primarily by
adding ligatures and accented characters where feasible. As usual,
we strongly recommend that users of previous versions read the
history.doc file, and that all users read README and readme.doc.
