<p>
This document is a roadmap to the Ghostscript documentation.
After looking through it, if you want to install Ghostscript and not only
use it, we recommend you read <a href="Install.htm">how to install
Ghostscript</a>, and <a href="Make.htm">how to compile Ghostscript</a> from
source code (which is necessary before installing it on Unix and VMS
	systems).</p>

<h3><a name="New_users"></a>What should I read if I'm a new user?</h3>

<ul>

<li>how to <a href="Use.htm">use Ghostscript</a>. This includes both
a quickstart introduction to the commandline version and more extensive
reference material.</li>

<li>detailed information about <a href="Devices.htm">specific
devices</a> that Ghostscript can use for output</li>

<li>more detailed information about how to use Ghostscript under
Unix with <code>lpr</code> <a href="Unix-lpr.htm">as a filter</a>
for printing</li>

<li>for information about known problems or to report a new one,
please visit <a href="http://bugs.ghostscript.com/">bugs.ghostscript.com</a> 
but remember that free versions of Ghostscript come with with
<strong>NO WARRANTY</strong> and <strong>NO SUPPORT</strong></li>
</ul>

<h3><a name="Two_Ghostscripts"></a>GPL and commercial Ghostscript</h3> 
<p>
GPL Ghostscript, Artifex Ghostscript and AFPL Ghostscript are <a href="Commprod.htm">different releases</a>.</p>

<ul>
<li>additional information about <a href="COPYING">GPL Ghostscript
releases</a> that is not relevant to commercial versions.</li>
</ul>

<p>
If you run into any questions, or if you are going to be using Ghostscript
	extensively, you should at least skim, and probably eventually read:</p>

<ul>
<li> about the <a href="Fonts.htm">fonts distributed with
Ghostscript</a>, including how to add or replace fonts</li>

<li> a description of <a href="Language.htm">the Ghostscript language</a>,
and its differences from the documented PostScript language</li>

<li> about the <a href="Psfiles.htm">postscript files distributed with
Ghostscript</a> (other than fonts)</li>
</ul>

<h3><a name="Before_building"></a>Before building Ghostscript</h3>

<p>
If you are going to compile Ghostscript from source, rather than just use an executable
	you got from somewhere, you may want to read:</p>

<ul>
<li> <a href="Make.htm">how to build Ghostscript</a> and
<a href="Install.htm">install it</a></li>
</ul>

<hr>

<h2><a name="Not_a_new_user"></a>What should I read if I'm not a new user?</h2>

<p>
If you have already used Ghostscript, when you receive a new release you
	should begin by reading this file, then</p>

<ul>
<li> <a href="News.htm">News</a>, for incompatible changes and new
features in the current release;</li>

<li> if you wish, History#.htm (currently <a
href="History9.htm">History9.htm</a>), for changes in the current and earlier releases.</li>
</ul>

<hr>

<h2><a name="Developer"></a>What if I'm a developer?</h2>

<p>
If you are going to do any development on or with Ghostscript at all, you
should at least look at</p>

<ul>
<li>the <a href="Develop.htm">roadmap documentation</a> for Ghostscript's
source files and architecture</li>
</ul>

<p>
	If you are going to write a new driver for Ghostscript, you should read</p>

<ul>
<li> the <a href="Source.htm">guide to the Ghostscript source code</a></li>

<li> the interface between Ghostscript and <a href="Drivers.htm">device
drivers</a></li>

<p>
If you are considering distributing GPL Ghostscript in conjunction 
with a commercial product, you should read the
	<a href="COPYING">license</a> carefully, and you should also read</p>

<ul>
<li> additional clarification of the circumstances under which Ghostscript
can be distributed <a href="Commprod.htm">with a commercial product</a></li>
</ul>

<p>
If you intend to use Ghostscript in the form of a dynamic link library
(DLL) under OS/2 or Microsoft Windows or in the form of shared object
under Linux, read</p>

<ul>
<li> documentation on <a href="API.htm">Ghostscript Interpreter API</a></li>
</ul>

<p>
If you want to use Ghostscript as part of another program--as a callable
PostScript language interpreter--and not as a DLL or as a self-contained
executable application, you should begin by reading</p>

<ul>
<li> the source file <code>imain.h</code>, the documented
API for Ghostscript <em>not</em> as a DLL</li>
</ul>

<p>
or if you are going to use only the Ghostscript graphics library,</p>

<ul>
<li> about the structure of the <a href="Lib.htm">Ghostscript library</a>
and its interfaces</li>
	</ul></ul>

<hr>

<h2><a name="Writer"></a>What if I'm writing documentation?</h2>
