PostScript (PS) files define printed page content through a vector programming language that was the backbone of professional desktop publishing and prepress throughout the 1990s and 2000s. JPG is the universally supported image format that provides efficient lossy compression for photographic and visually complex content. The .jpg extension is the most common three-character variant of the JPEG standard and is functionally identical to .jpeg.

Converting PS to JPG rasterizes PostScript page descriptions into the most widely shared image format on earth. Every device, every browser, every chat app, and every social media platform handles JPG files natively, making this conversion the simplest way to make PostScript content viewable by anyone.

PostScript files require specialized interpreters to view — they are fundamentally printer instructions, not display-friendly documents. The vast majority of computer users cannot open a .ps file without installing additional software. JPG solves this instantly: the converted image is viewable on any device without any special software or configuration.

JPG's compression efficiency makes it ideal for sharing PostScript content via email, messaging apps, and web platforms where file size matters. A full-page PostScript rendering at 150 DPI compresses to a 200-500 KB JPG file that loads instantly and shares easily, compared to the multi-megabyte PS source file that most recipients cannot even open.

Ghostscript renders the PostScript program at the specified resolution, producing a rasterized RGB bitmap. This bitmap is encoded to JPG using the JFIF (JPEG File Interchange Format) standard with configurable quality (0-100). The JPG encoder uses DCT-based compression with 8x8 pixel blocks, YCbCr color space conversion, and Huffman coding. Ghostscript handles the full PostScript language specification including Type 1/TrueType fonts, vector paths with Bezier curves, pattern fills, color space conversions (CMYK to RGB), and image operations. The output is a standard JPG file viewable by every image application and web browser.

No. JPG and JPEG are the same format — the only difference is the file extension length. The image data, compression, and quality are identical.

150 DPI is good for screen viewing and document embedding. 300 DPI for print-quality output. 72 DPI for small web thumbnails. Higher resolution means larger files and sharper detail.

Yes. Upload multiple PostScript files and each will be converted to a separate JPG image. Multi-page PS files produce one JPG per page.

Yes. CMYK PostScript content is automatically converted to RGB for the JPG output. The color conversion uses Ghostscript's default CMYK-to-sRGB transform.

PostScript files contain verbose programming instructions and possibly embedded fonts. The JPG stores only the rasterized pixel data with efficient compression, typically resulting in files 80-95% smaller than the source PS.
