How easy it is to compress a pdf file with @EffectTS_ and GhostScript. I use this for a SaaS that analyze tens of thousands of pdfs using LLMs. Fallback Logic is so easy with @EffectTS_ : flash model -> pro model -> compression

4chan allegedly used a 2012 GhostScript build to generate PDF thumbnails on uploaded PDFs

魔法生成できた！ 正直よくわからないPostScript🪄✨✨✨✨ #kamuiart #kamuidev. ・Adobe開発のPostscriptを使う模様.・dmmlibという作者の別リポジトリにあるPostscriptの関数群がないと動かない.・参考用Pythonではpstopngという生成コマンドを使っているようだが動かないのでGhostscriptで代替生成

CVE-2025-48708: A vulnerability in Artifex Ghostscript before version 10.05.1 causes the plaintext password used to protect a PDF file to be embedded in the output. The issue is due to a lack of argument sanitization in gs_lib_ctx_stash_sanitized_arg (base/gslibctx.c),

#MARCHintosh fun: my "new" Compaq Armada 1700 is participating on the GlobalTalk network. and I figured out how to share my Panasonic printer as a "LaserWriter." Using PC MacLAN (file/printer share), RedMon (port redirection), and GhostScript (PostScript to "Epson" converter)!

In my eternal journey to find a way to pleasantly rasterize PDFs, I think I've finally found a way using Ghostscript. - Output resolution at 1600DPI.- Strongest anti-aliasing.- Downscale to 200DPI. This is the best result possible. Left is PDF (vector) and right is PNG (raster)

2012 lol, their version of ghostscript is from before 99% of posters

Went on a PDF size reduction rabbit hole today (from 17MB down to 3MB). ghostscript is goat, I guess.

I didn't realize this post got like 6000 likes and 1000 bookmarks, but I was wrong. The exploit was even dumber. The issue was PDF uploads. PDF processing is notoriously dangerous, and 4chan used an ancient (2012) version of Ghostscript, which allowed remote code execution.

#OTD in 1994, fragments of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 began to rain down on Jupiter. Hubble captured the impacts, and this first viewing of an interplanetary impact in our solar system taught astronomers more about Jupiter, comets, and the science of impacts:

RCE bug in widely used Ghostscript library now exploited in attacks - @serghei.

ISDN専用であるG4 FAXではA4用紙で3200x4500相当の画像をモノクロ2値で送信できるわけですが、このモノクロ2値というヤツが現代ブラウザと相性が悪くてですね、PNGでもTIFF Group4の圧縮率には到底叶わんのですよ。. というわけで懐かしのGhostscript Tigerモノクロ2値 3200x3200をどうぞ。

Here is a handy and useful #Linux, #macOS, #FreeBSD and #Unix shell script that reduce PDF file size using Ghostscript. No need to upload your PDF file to the shady third-party website.
