I'd like to learn PostScript.  Can someone recommend a few texts to
get started with?  I would like to write stuff for a LaserWriter and
LaserWriter II, and do Display PostScript stuff on a '030 NeXT cube.

I understand that the "red", "blue", and "green" books by Adobe are
essential.  Has anybody read Don Lancaster's PostScript materials
and can anyone recommend his texts?

Are xps or ghostscript good for learning PostScript?

thanks!
