	Tektronix previewing for diTroff output?

We have some aging Tektronix 4006-1 terminals.  Before the advent of
PostScript, we used them as previewers before outputing to our
CalComp plotter.  (For the past few years we have used S or grap and
LaserWriters instead for plotting.)  We are seeking a
filter/emulator/driver that can convert ditroff or PostScript output
into whatever drives such a Tektronix terminal as ours.  (We would not
preview text -- far too slow -- but pic and grap.)
Any information?  Thanks.
