I've never been (nor wanted to be) a PostScript 'power user,' having been content to let Mac apps. pretty much do their own thing. Now, I am in a situation where I will have a program running on multiple Unix workstations that emits ASCII PostScript files of a pretty simple-minded character. (Molecular data structures get shoved through either a PS or an HPGL filter--the PS filter apparently doesn't do TOO much more gee-whiz stuff than the HPGL filter.) I would like to be able to download the ASCII files to a Mac, run them through an application that can convert them to some common Mac-compatible high-resolution screen-compatible format (presumably some flavor of PICT), then edit and gee-whizify them in a graphics editor and re-PostScript them. Is there software (commercial is OK) that does PS-to-PICT?
