I understand that it is not a complete implemantation of postscript and that which is implemented is biased towards graphics. I have seen varying opinions expressed in this group on this point. Assuming that psview is actually capable of displaying the file what you need in addition to the postscript0 file is the laserprep file which contains the definition of the 'Apple dependent stuff' that you observed. I am not a Mac user and don't know the details of how to extract a file containing the laserprep stuff. I have seen recipies for do so in some of the TeX related discussions that I follow. I think there was a detailed article in Tugboat (TeX Users Group journal) recently but I can't find it.
