PostScript is infinitely more friendly to Classic
Computers than PDF.
Hm, not in my experience.
A PostScript document can be easily handled by someone
who has no
computing technology younger than 1985, that's almost 20 y old, not
just 10. No graphical operating system required (how the heck is one
supposed to run Adobe Acrobat on a vintage command-line OS with a
VT100 terminal??),
You don't need Acrobat, no matter what a bunch of webpages may claim.
GhostScript groks PDFs just fine.
Indeed, ghostscript comes with a script that eats PDF and produces PS.
