Currently GhostPDF relies on extensions to the PostScript language/imaging model, and so cannot be used independently of the Ghostscript PostScript interpreter component.
GhostPDF is an interpreter built on top of Ghostscript that handles PDF files. The source code is included in both the Ghostscript and GhostPDL downloads from the same site. Even more confusingly, sometimes people say Ghostscript when they really mean GhostPDL.īinaries for Ghostscript for various systems can be downloaded from. Sometimes the Ghostscript graphics library is confusingly also referred to simply as Ghostscript. Ghostscript consists of a PostScript interpreter layer, and a graphics library.
It has been under active development for over 20 years and has been ported to many different systems during this time. It is available both under the GNU GPL Affero license and for commercial licensing from Artifex. Ghostscript is an interpreter for PostScript™ and Portable Document Format ( PDF) files. This application has a command line interface but GUI versions exist One is called GSview and another MuPDF. It also includes tools that can manipulate these files and a DLL that can be used by other applications to read these file.
