## Why another Ghostscript-Wrapper?

There are currently 2 other wrappers around that both didn't meet the requirements
I had:

* [gravitymedia/ghostscript](https://packagist.org/packages/gravitymedia/ghostscript)
* [alchemy/ghostscript](https://packagist.org/packages/alchemy/ghostscript)

While the gravitymedia library concentrates more on creating PDFs from input-media
the alchemy library is not easily extendable and doesn't handle the parameters to
finetune Ghostscript the way I needed them.

So this library tries to handle most of the important switches to ghostscript and
also allows you to extend the library by implementing your own driver using the
```DriverInterface```. More information on that will be shown in the
[Documentation](https://heiglandreas.github.io/Org_Heigl_Ghostscript)
