GhostScript

From MusiCAD
(Redirected from GhostScript dialog)

GhostScript is a free implementation of the PostScript language which enables MusiCAD to save music as PDF, JPG and PNG. By default all printing is performed using GhostScript. The GhostScript dialog [Options|Preferences|GhostScript] makes it possible to fine-tune GhostScript operation and even replace GhostScript with another postscript interpreter, as is required when using GPL-licensed software (GhostScript) bundled with non GPL software (MusiCAD)

It is possible to print without GhostScript: just uncheck GS.
