PostScript is a page description language like BASIC,
COBO or C++. One can write code to display or print text
or shapes. PostScript has one special feature. It describes
the page very accurately. It needs RIP (Raster Image
Processor) to print the page. RIP reads the code written
in PostScript and renders the page exactly in the form of
dots. Now, many printer manufacturers developed PostScript
printer drivers to handle PostScript print jobs.
