They allow for the saving of color in a spectrum wider than that used by GIF files, as well as assigning pixels with specific degrees of transparency or color saturation.

File Extension	PS

File with a .PS extension contains a description of an image page, which may consist of a raster or vector graphic or text, written in the PostScript language. Currently, this format is not popular although still supported by most imaging devices and applications.

What is file format conversion?

File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "PNG") to another (referred to as "PS"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, PNG file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format PNG to format PS becomes essential.

So, how can we perform PNG to PS file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format PNG and transforming it into format PS. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of PNG to PS converters.
