PostScript seems to be a one-way system; I don't know any software that 
actually reads it. CorelDraw however claims that it can read Encapsulated 
PostScript (eps) and Encapsulated Postscript Interchange (epsi). This is 
not the same as the PostScript produced by ps.map; I remember reading 
something about a ps2epsi program that comes with GhostScript. Anyone out 
there that has ever used it? I would definitely be interested in it!
