Somebody mailed me a private response stating that this cannot be done
because too much of the formatting info is lost in the process of
converting to postscript.

I guess the best that could be done is to do a postscript to character
(note that I intentionally did not misuse the term ASCII here) and then
manually recreate the Word .doc file. I guess it's better than losing file.

This means that my question now becomes: "Which is the best postscript to
character translation program?"
