The .ps filename extension refers to files authored using the open postscript programming language. The postscript format was developed and first released by Adobe Systems in 1982. It is a dynamically typed object oriented page description language format with graphics primitives that make it appropriate for use in desktop publication workflows. The postscript format quickly became the default language driving high resolution laser printers used by prepress service bureaus because it is well suited to describing page layouts with great precision. Several applications both proprietary and open source can allow you to open postscript files, others such as PDF creator or Adobe distiller will convert the postscript file into a PDF file for viewing. Postscript file editing can also be done with simple text editors given the standard character set used in the language.
From the 70's to 2007 the open source .txt filename extension format commonly referred to plain text documents encoded using the ASCII character set. To support internationalization and localization, .txt text documents are today text files encoded using the UTF-8 or UTF-16LE standard which is a superset of the ASCII character set. Text documents of type .txt typically have minimal formatting for example no support for bold or italic characters or support for bullet points etc. This allows .txt documents to use minimum storage space and be platform independent as long as the operating system supports the underlying encoding character set used to create the .txt document. On windows .txt file support has existed since 1985 when Windows 1.0 was released and since then has been mostly associated with the notepad application on Microsoft Windows.
FreeFileConvert uses tuned encoding for PS to TXT conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished audio streams instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload PS files from desktop, tablet, or cloud storage, queue multiple jobs, and let the converter finish autonomously. Return whenever convenient to download synchronized TXT results on any device you rely on.
Process up to 5 files sized 1000 MB per batch without splitting queues manually. Mixed-format uploads convert together, producing consistent TXT audio with dependable progress tracking.
Postscript files are typically human readable files written in plain text. The ASCII or UTF-8 character encoding are the character sets used to form postscript files. Most postscript files can render directly on printer spoolers, and often begin with '%!' so that the printer postscript interpreter interprets the file as a postscript file rather than a plain text file.
Unicode (UTF-8 or UTF-16LE) is the defacto character encoding set for .txt files. It is supported by all major operating systems, with many having native applications that can open .txt documents.
