5. Data read by read and readstring undergoes no EOL translation. Whatever
characters were received from the channel are read by the PostScript interpreter.
However, the channel itself may be performing some EOL translation. For example,
the serial and parallel channels on the LaserWriter Select 310 printer may affect the
input data, as described in Table 3-3, in Chapter 3, “Communication Channels.”
6. Data written by write and writestring undergoes no EOL translation. Whatever
characters were provided by the PostScript interpreter are sent to the channel. The
newline character, represented by \n in a PostScript language string object, is sent
as LF.
