The latest PC Publishing magazine reviews Arts & Letters
Graphics Editor 2.0 that includes a stand-alone conversion
utility named Decipher that can "read and translate
virtually any Postcript file", including custom-written
programs.  It translates the file to their native .GED file
format, and you can edit with their program, or you can
export it to a couple of other file formats.  The company
is Computer Support Corporation (214)661-8960.  I have no
affiliation with them, and I haven't actually used the
product yet.  I'd be interested in hearing from someone who has.
