TL;DR: This entirely new and up-to-date Second Edition offers the most comprehensive coverage of the entire PostScript language, including the recent advancements of PostScript Level 2.
Abstract: From the Publisher:
communications. This powerful and flexible language efficiently describes the appearance of text, sampled images, and graphics on a printed page or display. PostScript language interpreters have been incorporated into some of today's most innovative printers, typesetters, film records, and computer display environments.
The PostScript Language Reference Manual from Adobe Systems Incorporated is the official reference to the PostScript language. This entirely new and up-to-date Second Edition offers the most comprehensive coverage of the entire PostScript language, including the recent advancements of PostScript Level 2.
The PostScript Language Reference Manual, contains the complete semantics of every PostScript language operator, the Display PostScript System, PostScript Level 1 (the original PostScript language), and PostScript Level 2, the first major revision to the language since its release in 1985. PostScript Level 2 incorporates recent extensions to the language and many new features including:
CMYK color Composite fonts Forms Patterns Color separations Resource management New memory management Improved screening algorithms Data compression/decompression Support for printer-specific features Device-independent, CIE-based color Optimized text and graphics operators
As PostScript continues to be the industry standard page description language for imaging high-quality text and graphics, the PostScript Language Reference Manual, remains the definitive resource for all PostScript language programmers.

TL;DR: In this article, an on-line automated printing system is described, which includes front-end customer setup and product setup modules available on a web server and includes a PostScript to bitmap conversion subsystem.
Abstract: An on-line automated printing system quickly produces consistent printed materials. The system includes front-end customer setup and product setup modules available on a web server. A Print Ready File is produced embodying the product to be printed. The Print Ready File is compiled and all operations on the file can be completed via reference to the information contained therein. A state flag is associated with each element of the file, the flag having states such as preview, print, both, or none. The file is stored on an asset management file server. The file (unchanged) may be previewed or printed using internal flags and logic built-in to the PostScript language. A batcher service batches print jobs. A plater service accepts the Print Ready Files and outputs a plate file to a print vendor's ordering system. Over the Internet the plate file is sent to a vendor computer. The plate file is sent to a raster image processor (RIP) which outputs a bitmap to be printed. Included within the system is a PostScript to bitmap conversion subsystem. A client application requests conversion of a file to bitmap format and pulls conversion parameters from an image logic information database. The client sends the parameters along with input and output files to a master service. The master service selects a lower-level service for conversion. A PostScript to bitmap conversion module (with hardcoded parameters) executes the software application Alchemy to perform conversion of the file and outputs the result.

20 Jun 1997TL;DR: Disclosed is a method of modifying one or more colors contained in an Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file in a computer program such as a desktop publishing program as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Disclosed is a method of modifying one or more colors contained in an Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file in a computer program such as a desktop publishing program (50). After an EPS file has been imported into a publication, all identifiable colors in the EPS file, i.e., spot colors and, in some instances, process colors, are displayed to a color palette (84). The color palette allows a user to see those colors (or inks) that are needed to print the publication, and subsequently modify the colors without having to return to the originating program that exported the EPS file. The method includes creating a publication color list that contains those colors that have been modified, generating a PostScript (PS) color table from the publication color list after the modifications are complete, and changing the attributes of those colors in the PS table while printing the publication to a file or to a printer.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for guiding consumers to promotional material stored electronically on a computer database is described, where consumers are directed to a website where the promotional material can be accessed.
Abstract: A method for guiding consumers to promotional material stored electronically on a computer database is described. The consumers are directed to a website where the promotional material can be accessed. A list of geographic locations where the promotional material is usable is provided for the consumer to select. The consumer selects a geographic location and then categories of promotional material are provided for the consumer to further define the area of interest for promotional material. The promotional material for the selected geographic location and category is then displayed for the consumer. The consumer can select and print the desired promotional material. Promotional material in the form of weekly advertisements are prepared in a media independent form prior to entry on the web site. The advertisements are stored in an encapsulated postscript file, manipulated to the desired form, and stored as a digital image in a compressed file with key words. The consumer can then search for particular items in the promotional material through the key words.
