LaserGo's GoScript PostScript interpreter in the current version has
an option to let you write the resulting bitmap to disk; the new
version that is being advertised (and which, when I talked to the
people at Lasergo when I went by their office to pick up a font
package, they expect to ship in March) will save the bitmap to .PCX
and (I think) .TIF format graphics files.
