| PackageDescription | IJS raster image transport protocol: development files
IJS (InkJet Server) is, first and foremost, a protocol for
transmission of raster page images. This snapshot provides a
reference implementation of the protocol, the design of which is
still in flux. When the protocol specification is published, it will
be authoritative. Applications should feel free to link against the
library provided in this package, adapt that code for their own
needs, or roll a completely new implementation.
.
IJS is a client-server protocol, used to write ghostscript drivers.
The drivers are separate programs. The client and server communicate
via pipes, though shared memory may be used additionally in the
future. Currently IJS is used by the hpijs and ijsgimpprint drivers.
.
Code for both the client- and server-side is included in the library.
This package provides a static library, development headers and
documentation. |
