Description: interpreter for the PostScript language and for PDF - common files
GPL Ghostscript is used for PostScript/PDF preview and printing.
Usually as a back-end to a program such as ghostview,
it can display PostScript and PDF documents in an X11 environment.
.
This package provides common architecture-independent files
needed by the GPL Ghostscript library.
.
By default, GPL Ghostscript uses a font from the fonts-droid package
to approximate glyphs in PDFs
for which the requested CJK TrueType font is missing.
If the fonts-droid package is not installed,
these glyphs will be rendered as bullets.
