## NAME
       ps2pdfwr - Convert PostScript to PDF without specifying CompatibilityLevel, using ghostscript

## SYNOPSIS
       **ps2pdfwr  **[options...] {input.[e]ps|-} [output.pdf|-]

## DESCRIPTION
       This wrapper script invokes [**gs**(1)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/gs/1/markdown) with following arguments

                                  **-q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite**

       as  well  as the appropriate **-dOutputFile **argument, all preceded and followed by any command-
       line arguments. Finally, the security option **-dSAFER **is prepended before all  the  other  op‐
       tions (This is now redundant as "SAFER" is now the default, but the option does no harm).

       The  version-specific  **ps2pdf **scripts all invoke this one with the addition of the respective
       compatibility level option.
