About PS files

A .PS file is primarily a PostScript document, a page description language developed by Adobe in the 1980s. While revolutionary for desktop publishing, .PS files act as "programming code" for printers rather than standard digital documents, making them difficult to view on modern operating systems like Windows or macOS without specialized tools like Ghostscript or Adobe Illustrator. They often lack the compression and interactive features found in their successor, PDF, resulting in significantly larger file sizes and slower rendering speeds.

For most users, the raw PostScript format is obsolete for distribution. Converting .PS to PDF is the standard workflow for archiving and sharing, ensuring the document looks the same on any device. For web use or quick previews, converting to JPG or PNG is recommended. In rare cases, a .PS file may be a video stream from CCTV systems (like Hikvision or iCatch); these proprietary video files are incompatible with standard players and must be converted to MP4 or AVI for playback. convert.guru automatically detects whether your file is a document or a video stream to provide the correct conversion options.

Use Convert.Guru to open and convert your PS file.

Users also converted MOP, DVI, GS, SP, PRS, SCRIPT, INDD, PDF, CPS, PSI, PSV, PRN and PJL files.



The PS Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our PS converter.
