Description-en: 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.
