A '''semantics encoding''' is a translation between [[formal language]]s. For programmers, the most familiar form of encoding is the compilation of a programming language into machine code or byte-code. Conversion between document formats are also forms of encoding. Compilation of [[TeX]] or [[LaTeX]] documents to [[PostScript]] are also commonly encountered encoding processes. Some high-level preprocessors such as [[OCaml]]'s [[Camlp4]] also involve encoding of a programming language into another.
