The iTools are supposed to be able to export PS output. Vector
items like text and lines are exported as vector graphics.
Rendered 3-D items like surfaces are exported as bitmaps.

That said, I have never been able to get it to work acceptably,
so long ago I gave up and just export as PNGs. If I remember
correctly, transparency of 3-D rendered objects was particularly
broken.
