I think Scribus (http://www.scribus.net/) will import PS files and allow
you to edit them within reason.
There have been a couple of replies indicating that is is just text.
Well it is usually, if you're lucky. I have seen and had to give up
dealing with several PS files because the micro-spacing commands made
finding the text impossible (pre/early linux times and all the nifty
utilites that have come out of the Open Source movement.)
A quick look at the Scribus documentation turned up a mention of
the pstoedit utility. That might make editing easier.
