SUMMARY Display zstd compressed postscript files (*.ps.zst) similar to gzip compressed ones *.ps.gz) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. zstd compress and gzip compress a postscipt file 2. open the .ps.gz file 3. open the .ps.zst file OBSERVED RESULT Only the .ps.gz is displayed. Zstd offers far better compression rates with a trained dictionary on relevant postscript samples EXPECTED RESULT .ps.zst SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS pretty much independent. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I hope the dependency to zstd library, available with BSD license is not triggering legal problems.
