I would tend to think that a PostScript to Impress converter would have to be
a full PostScript interpreter that produces a bitmap and ships that to the
Imagen.  The reason is that PostScript supports dozens of features that have
no equivalent in Impress and cannot be easily simulated.  It is also unlikely
that you can do without the PostScript fonts.

This is perfectly possible.  PostScript previewers are on the works by Adobe
for X and Sun will support a PostScript oriented windowing system, but in both
cases graphic processing is done locally on the machine that runs the display.
This is exactly what a PostScript printer is: a reasonably powerful computer
running an interpreter to produce a rasterized image.

You are asking for a previewer with resolution=300dpi and a back end to ship
bitmaps to the Imagen. So if nothing else will kill you, the communication
overhead might.
