I would very much like an interpreter for converting PostScript .PS files to
a bit map or some other useable format so that I may print out the file to a
non-Postscript printer such as a HP DeskWriter or ImageWriter II.

I don't know if the PostScript language is protected to prevent an
interpreter such as this.

Wasn't the PostScript language released to the public just recently?
Isn't a new version supposed to be in the making?

I think that this is an interesting question and any comments would be
appreciated from the forum of students like me.
