We have a machine that runs VMS DECwindows, and there is a program that comes
with standard VMS/DECwindows that allows you to preview PostScript files
(Actually we use the Ultrix version (dxpsview) all the time here.) Its file
specification is SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]DECW$PSVIEWER.EXE. If you run the default
DECwindows session manager, you should get it in the Applications menu (I
haven't used it for a while, so not so sure about this last statement.) 
It is not PD though. Hope this helps.
