Adobe introduces PostScript
With PostScript becoming a de facto standard for printed output, it was natural to consider using the same language for describing the screen output as well. The rapid increase in CPU power in the late 1980s, combined with an interest in windowing systems, led to several attempts to create a display system that used PostScript as its primary display technology.
Apple LaserWriter was the first printer to ship with PostScript which quickly became the most popular way to output graphics from the computer.
