The upp file extension is associated with Ghostscript, an interpreter for the PostScript language and Adobe Portable Document Format. Ghostscript is developed by Artifex Software.
A upp file contains printer-specific settings for Uniprint, a printer module included with Ghostscript. The settings define how Uniprint prepares output for a printer.
UPP files are configuration files rather than printable documents. The Microsoft Windows version of Ghostscript can use them, and Ghostscript is also available on other platforms.
Open a upp file in a plain-text editor to view its contents. Editing it safely requires knowledge of Ghostscript and the target printer's Uniprint settings.
Ghostscript may load the file automatically as part of a Uniprint workflow, or it can be selected or supplied through the relevant Ghostscript options or application.
A upp file is a printer configuration file and is not normally converted to another format. If different printer settings are needed, the file can be edited or replaced with an appropriate Uniprint parameter file.
