 PostScript - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
PostScript went beyond the typical printer control language, and was a complete programming language of its own.
PostScript is also noteworthy for implementing on-the fly rasterization; everything, even text, is specified in terms of straight lines and cubic Bézier curves (previously found only in CAD applications), which allows arbitrary scaling, rotating and other transformations.
With PostScript becoming a de-facto standard for printed output, it was natural to consider using the same language for describing the screen output as well.

Display PostScript applications use window system features for window placement and sizing, menu creation, and event handling, while using Display PostScript features to take care of imaging inside the window.
In fact, these procedures generate PostScript language statements and transmit them to the PostScript interpreter for execution; the PostScript interpreter then produces graphical output that is displayed by device- specific procedures in the Display PostScript system.

 ASK ANDY--RESOLUTION AND LINE SCREEN TIPS AND TRICKS
What is displayed on screen is a representation of the document, but not based on the actual true PostScript code, this code is not 'run' until it gets to the printer.
With 'Display PostScript' the same PostScript code that is used to print, is used (after conversion) to display the image on screen.
As Display PostScript has the potential to reduce the need for a PostScript printer, as the PostScript code could be 'rendered' on the computer, then sent to the printer in a standard 'bitmap' or raster form, Adobe may want to impose a limitation on the output quality to non-PostScript (and therefore non-licensed) printers.

 Developing Applications for the Display PostScript System
In XDPS, PostScript language code can be sent to a context in three encodings: as a binary object sequence, as binary-encoded tokens, or as ASCII text.
That is, it is possible for X and the Display PostScript system to become unsynchronized.
As a result, to paint on an X display, a PostScript context must first find whether there is a pixel value that matches the pure color or shade specified by the PostScript language.

PostScript The page description language developed by Adobe Systems Inc. PostScript is one of the breakthrough triumphs of modern computer technology, taking its place alongside timesharing, solid-state memory, disk storage, microtechnology, virtual memory, multitasking, and graphical user interfaces.
PostScript inherently allows scalability in many processes under its control, such as the resolution with which to display and print graphics, the byte-depth of stored character data, and how information data is managed between computer systems and input/output processes.
