To follow up on this discussion for Mac users, I wholeheartedly endorse
converting from PS to PDF for direct graphics, and directly to PDF
for new graphics. You can use Preview to view PS or PDF files and
extract individual pages from multipage PDF files for editing.
For TeX users, the TeXShop front end works very well with PDF files.
Illustrator is also essential for tweaking files and for converting
back to PS or EPS if required.
