PostScript files don't have a resolution.

When rendered directly to screen or on a printer, they will be
rendered at the device's resolution.

If you convert them to raster images (with e.g. GIMP or ImageMagick),
they will be rendered at a specific resolution. The resolution is
normally user-configurable, although the default is often quite low
(typically 75dpi). How to specify the resolution depends upon the
program.
