# The newest version of ghostscript (6.5) does a pretty good job.  It

Thanks... I'll look into that.

# Usually I need to do the reverse: given a PDF file I convert it to PS

Most of the time (since I work in Windows at work) I take Visio network
diagrams and other files types and create PDFs so that I can distribute
a more portable format to co-workers. There are times that I generatea
PS file on a BSD machine and then use Acrobat Distiller to generate PDFs
:)
