PDF
Portable Document Format (PDF) is a universal file format that preserves all of the fonts, formatting, colors, and graphics of any source document, regardless of the application and platform used to create it. PDF files are compact and can be shared, viewed, navigated, and printed exactly as intended by anyone with a PDF compatible reader. PDF files are ideal for documents that are intended for print.

PostScript
PostScript is a page description language (PDL) developed by Adobe Systems. In essence, it is a programming language for describing how a page is to be printed or displayed.
