There is a commercial app called "Freedom of Press" for the Mac.
I have used it to drive Montage FR1 film recorder and produced
color slides from NeXT generated PostScript.  It has a preview mode
and can also render for other printers.

But as a previewer, it's slow compared with what you are used to
on the NeXT.
