# PDF to PostScript Converter

> Convert a PDF into DSC-conformant PostScript for a printer or an RIP.

PDF to PostScript Converter runs entirely in your browser. The PDF is parsed on your own device with pdf.js, its paragraphs, headings and tables are recovered from the text layer and written into a genuine PostScript file. Nothing is uploaded, which is the reason to use this on a contract, a payslip or a medical letter.

## FAQ

### Will this print correctly?

The text will. PostScript shares the PDF coordinate system, so every line lands where it did on the page, at the right size and weight. Vector artwork and images are not carried across — this produces the text of the document as PostScript, not a full re-render.
