Ghostscript is an interpreter for the PostScript® language and PDF files. It is available under either the GNU GPL Affero license or licensed for commercial use from Artifex Software, Inc. It has been under active development for over 30 years and has been ported to several different systems during this time. Ghostscript consists of a PostScript interpreter layer and a graphics library.

There is a family of other products, including GhostPCL, GhostPDF, and GhostXPS that are built upon the same graphics library. Between them, this family of products offers native rendering of all major page description languages. Our latest product, GhostPDL, pulls all these languages into a single executable.

  • Hi Developer and All, it is a good tool for PCL Conversion I am a newer .so i have some questions 1) How to count of Page on the PCL File using Ghost script? 2) How to Convert PCL to PCL using Ghost script? 3) How to view PCL File in C#.Net using Ghost script?
  • The installation wrapper sites the Affero GNU Public License (AGPL or Affero GPL) license. I can just go to Artifex and get the latest version under that license. Where is the regular GPL (GNU Public License) version of ghostscript and why is there a separate repository here on sourceforge that is 5 versions out of date compared with the Artifex site?
  • <VERY UNHAPPY!!!> The Install Cleared my Path Variables and replaced them all with "%GTK_BASEPATH%\bin;" instead of just placing it to the end!!! </VERY UNHAPPY!!!>
  • I'm working with Ghostscript library for a while now. Works like a charm. If you need .NET Ghostscript wrapper, search for a "Ghostscript.NET" on sourceforge or codeplex.
  • Nice, thank you
