WPS: PostScript for the Web
Thought you guys would like this:

Welcome to WPS, a PostScript and PDF interpreter for HTML 5 canvas.

Note that to see and run the examples, JavaScript must be enabled and your browser must support HTML 5 canvas (latest Firefox, Opera and Chrome should work).

This document allows you to try simple PostScript programs in the WPS sandbox. A few examples are presented here accompanied by a brief description of the interpreter and listing some implementation notes for my future reference.
Not sure if this will ever be useful for our e-reading habits but I like to follow PDF reading technology...

Agreed not sure how this would on eReaders. Unless they found some way to decompose PDF and re-interpret the PS code.

Anyhow great article thanks for sharing.
