Please Help: PS to EPS conversion

I am in need of assistance in converting PS to EPS file formats.  The PS
files are single page graphics files produces in the application S.  I
would like to convert them to EPS format for importing as figures into
a report.

I read the FAQ in this forum and tried the suggestions in subject 9.3
on the issue of coverting PS to EPS, but have had no success.  The commands
erasepage and initclip are defined in the early portion of the PS file, but
not referenced later.  Subject 9.3 defines these as operators that should
not be used in an EPS file, and I have tried removing the lines that contain
them but still no luck.  The error that WordPerfect reports when I try to
retrieve the file into a graphics figure box is "incorrect format".

The ideal solution would be for someone to recommend to me a utility on 
the DOS or UNIX platforms that will do the conversion for me.  Alternatively
I will gladly accept recommendations or assistance if someone offers.  I have
perhaps 50 such files, and because of their similarity I suspect the same
problem plagues them all, so one solution gets 50.  Pretty good return, I
think.

Thanks in advance.
Mark
