You can convert a pdf file to postscript file in VB. Add acrtobat.tlb in project reference.. here is a code 

Set lobjAdobeApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App") 
Set lobjAdobeDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc") 

szDirPath = "c:\test\" '"C:\testpdf\" 
szFileName = "OutFile.ps" 
szPDFName = "env.PDF" '"TestFile.pdf" 



szTemp = szDirPath & Trim(szPDFName) ' full path to pdf file 
    lobjAdobeDoc.Open szTemp, szFileName 'open the file, with the final filename as the title of the window 
    If (lobjAdobeDoc.IsValid = True) Then ' we opened the document ok 
        Set lobjAdobePDDoc = lobjAdobeDoc.GetPDDoc() 
        nLastPage = lobjAdobePDDoc.GetNumPages() - 1 'Adobe is picky about having the correct page count. 
        lobjAdobeDoc.PrintPages 0, nLastPage, 1, 0, 0 'print the document to the default print driver 
        lobjAdobePDDoc.Close 'shut everything down nicely 
        lobjAdobeDoc.Close 0 
        'FileCopy "c:\RightFax.prn", szDirPath & Trim(szFileName) 'copy the new file to something your app understands 
        'Kill "c:\RightFax.prn" 'clean it out.. not necessary as the next print will overwrite, but I'm paranoid 
        MsgBox "Postscript file created successfully" 
    Else 
        'MsgBox "Could not open " & szPDFName & " in Acrobat" 'something VERY BAD has happened. 
        SendKeys "{ENTER}", True 
    End If
