Hmmm ... my two cents, but since I suffer from severe O.F. syndrome these days,
I could be way off base.
Never the less, some rumblings on some things I have found out over the past few
days.
Postscript was Adobe's answer to HP's PCL/PJL language, of which I am happily
writing nice print filters using PCL that just flat work.
PDF is suppose to be a direct descendant of Postscript (could be wrong here).
PCL is to Postscript what terminal control is to HTML. Me, I much prefer
the escape sequence type of things since it impacts my my O.F. syndrome less.
Just my rumblings ....
