.ps
A .ps file is a PostScript print file: a program that a printer or an interpreter such as Ghostscript runs to draw the page.

Contenta Converter only converts PostScript files that carry an embedded preview image (the binary EPS-style header) to JPG, PNG or TIFF. For plain PostScript, use the free Ghostscript to render it to PNG or PDF.

| Opis | PostScript (PS) jest dynamicznie concatenative wpisany język programowania stworzony przez John Warnock i Charles Geschke w 1982 roku. PostScript jest znana jej używać jako języka opisu strony w formie elektronicznej i desktop publishing obszarach. |
| Korzyści | Device-independent by design: the same .ps file prints identically on a 300 dpi laser from 1990 and a 2400 dpi imagesetter today. Text-based, so you can edit or inspect the file with any text editor. Perfectly suited for high-quality print output where vector accuracy matters. |
| Wady | Superseded by PDF in 1993. Modern workflows have no reason to use PS — PDF is smaller, faster to render, self-contained, and supports the same vector accuracy. Rendering a PS file requires a PostScript interpreter (Ghostscript, or a PostScript printer), which makes viewing inconvenient. Most modern apps and browsers can't open .ps directly. |

Most .ps files are plain PostScript with no embedded preview, and Contenta Converter does not interpret PostScript. Render it with the free Ghostscript (to PNG or PDF), or print it to PDF from the program that made it.
