Try using the Postscript Escape font, available from Sumex.  Be sure to read
the docs that come with it.  The idea is that you import your PostScript file,
change the font to Postscript Escape, and then the PostScript printer interprets
it as postscript instead of text.  The docs with the font gives instructions
for just how to get it to work with several kinds of apps.  (I haven't tried
it yet; please let us all know if it works!)
