Can I convert PNG to PostScript on iPhone, Android, Mac or Windows?

Yes. ConvertPixels works in Safari, Chrome, Edge and Firefox on any device, so you can convert PNG to PostScript on your phone or computer without installing an app.

Is there a free PNG to PostScript converter with no sign-up?

Yes, this one. Converting PNG to PostScript on ConvertPixels is free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily cap. Convert up to 30 files per batch, each up to 50 MB.

Will my PostScript look like the original image?

Converting to vector traces your pixels into shapes. Logos, icons, signatures, line drawings and text come out clean; photos turn into a simplified, poster-style illustration. Pick black and white or up to 16 colors in the options.

Does PostScript keep the transparent background of my PNG?

No - PostScript has no transparency, so see-through areas get a solid fill. That's white unless you pick another background color in the options.

Can I batch convert PNG to PostScript?

Yes. Add up to 30 PNG files and convert them in one batch. You can even choose a different output format for individual files, then download them separately or together as a ZIP.

Is it safe to upload PNG files to ConvertPixels?

Yes. Uploads use an encrypted connection and are processed automatically - nobody views them. Your originals are deleted straight after conversion and the results within an hour, or instantly if you click "Delete from server now".

PNG to PostScript

Why convert PNG to PostScript?

The main difference: PNG is a lossless format, while PostScript is a vector format. PNG can have a transparent background, PostScript can't.

Where PostScript works best

PostScript is ideal for print jobs and printer workflows. Converting gives you a file that works in the apps and websites that ask for PostScript.

PNG vs PostScript: what's the difference?

What is a PNG file?

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a lossless image format created in 1996 as a patent-free replacement for GIF. It stores every pixel exactly, so text, logos and sharp edges stay perfectly crisp however often you save the file.

PNG supports full transparency, which makes it the standard format for logos, icons, screenshots and graphics placed on top of other designs. For photos, though, PNG files are several times larger than JPG.

How to open a PNG file

PNG opens everywhere: Windows Photos, Mac Preview, iPhone and Android galleries and every web browser. Editors like Photoshop, GIMP, Figma and Canva keep the transparency intact.

Extension: .png
Compression: Lossless
Transparency: Yes
Best for: Logos, screenshots, graphics, text

What is a PostScript file?

PostScript (.ps) is Adobe's page description language from 1984 - the language many professional printers speak. A .ps file describes a whole page or document as instructions for drawing text, shapes and images.

PostScript files mostly come from print workflows and "print to file" output. PDF was built on the same ideas and has replaced it for everyday use.

How to open a PostScript file

Ghostscript and GSview open PostScript files on Windows; macOS Preview handled them up to Monterey. Adobe Acrobat Distiller converts them to PDF. Converting to PDF or PNG is the easiest way to view one today.
