Does anyone know of any method of displaying a PostScript file on the
Macintosh screen, or translating it back into MacDraw format? We are
in the process of choosing a description language for portable,
integrated graphics and text in fonts, and would like to be able to 
take an (ASCII) PostScript file, ship it around between machines, and
display in on a Mac that is acting as a terminal to a UNIX host.

Do any UNIX workstations (e.g. Sun) have the ability to display
PostScript documents?

Any information, hints, or comments gratefully accepted.  Thanks.
