I suggest using PSAlter. This will allow you to step through the PS file and render it to screen.

What Peter says is almost right - you can distill the PostScript into PDF for viewing/printing using Acrobat Distiller - not Acrobat Reader. However, be aware of your Acrobat Distiller settings before you do this as you could compress quality out of the PostScript file.

Good luck!!
