  abstract =     "Advances in laser technology have facilitated the
                 development of printers which accept input in the form
                 of pages rather than the lines characteristic of impact
                 printers. Concurrently, page description languages
                 (PDLs) have been designed to facilitate the integration
                 of complex text and graphics for printing. PDLs are
                 described in a variety of ways and the paper starts
                 with a rationalization of these viewpoints. It then
                 traces the development of PDLs, describes their main
                 characteristics, and looks at their relationship with
                 laser printers. A survey of current implementations is
                 then followed by an analysis of the relationship of
                 these languages to other schemes for the description of
                 printed images. Finally, the paper considers the
                 requirements for a PDL standard.",
