It is solved. Just ask the person who gave you the postscript for the
source document in ascii form! 

I worry about the availability of such decoding tool in general,
because my colleagues and I use postscript as a relatively secure
method (secure from cut and paste plagiarism, at least) to prepublish
scientific papers. Postscript was specifically chosen over TeX
precisely for its ability to obscure the source text.
