September Project of the Month: GPL Ghostscript
------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://sf.net/blog/potm-201009/
GPL Ghostscript has been around since 1989 and we're very happy to have
them as our POTM for September. GPL Ghostscript is a complete set of
page description language interpreters including PDF, PostScript, PCL5,
PCLXL, and XPS along with the ability to convert to and from any of
these languages. There is no other open source solution for page
description languages that is this comprehensive. Congratulations to the
entire team!
