Even converting a postscript-file to a bitmap is not easy. For that
you need a Postscript interpreter. This is exactly what Ghostscript
is, and does. So, using ghostscript you could convert an arbitrary
postscript file to a bitmap (which you theoretically could import into
idraw). It probably doesn't do much good though, since all the objects
are lost (or "flattened").
