Virtual LaserWriter and PS-to-PDF Conversion

Posted by: PappaDF on 2026-09-27 08:32:05 I wanted a "virtual" LaserWriter for my small emulator project, and it all got out of hand, growing in scope to the point that it became a project on its own. For anyone interested (that needs to simulate a LaserWriter or convert PS to PDF in general), you can try it out live here: EfterScript — .ps in, PDF out A memory-safe interpreter compatible with the PostScript language. Try it in your browser; nothing is uploaded. efterscript.github.io Code here: https://github.com/efterscript/efterscript Crates here: https://crates.io/crates/efterscript NPM package here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/efterscript Example of emulator integration in: https://github.com/pappadf/granny-smith Note: AI tools have been used as part of this project. I know that is a red flag for some, and I fully respect that.
