Two browsers cannot display the same image if they say use screens of different sizes and dimensions. This is the difficult problem that HTML and CSS try to solve, so that the same web page is actually readable both on a desktop screen and a mobile.

PostScript does not even attempt to solve this problem, so would never work on the web. Unless you mandate that everyone should have screens with the same dimensions and dpi.
